About this book
Four orphans live at Arnwood, a Cavalier's estate beside the New Forest in Hampshire, near Lymington. Their father, Colonel Beverley, a friend of Prince Rupert, fell at Naseby, and their mother died a few months later, leaving two sons and two daughters with an elderly relative. Frederick Marryat set the story in 1647, with Charles I a prisoner and Cromwell's army gaining control, and addressed it to young readers. It first appeared in 1847.
