About this book
Steadfast Kenton, a boy of fourteen, minds his family's small herd on a farm at Elmwood, within sight of Bristol, in the years of the English civil war of the 1640s. Charlotte M. Yonge, author of The Heir of Redclyffe, sets her story among cottagers and farmers rather than lords and generals. The chapter titles trace a household under strain, with stragglers, a farewell to the Cavaliers, a troop of soldiers, hard winters and a harvest day, and end with a chapter named Fulfilment. Pictures show the hiding of a casket and Stead before the Roundheads.
