The English Civil War provides the setting for this famous children's story. Left to the care of Jacob Armitage, an old forester and family friend, after the capture of their father, Colonel Beverley, in the Royalist cause, Humphrey, Edward, Alice and Edith learn to adapt to a simple life in a New Forest cottage. The story describes their childhood in hiding, until the two boys are old enough to fight for the King, and upon the accession of Charles II the family fortunes are restored.
