Summary "In the Reign of Terror: The Adventures of a Westminster Boy" by G. A. Henty is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers on a young English boy named Harry Sandwith, who is sent to France during the tumultuous period of the French Revolution. The narrative explores themes of bravery, cultural exchange, and the impact of societal upheaval on personal lives, as Harry becomes wrapped up in the events surrounding the Reign of Terror. At the start of the book, we meet Dr. Sandwith, who debates whether to allow his son, Harry, to leave England and join a French noble family as a companion for their children. As the family discusses the risks of going to France amidst the revolution, Harry expresses both excitement and apprehension about the adventure. Eventually, he embarks on the journey to France, where he meets members of the noble family he is to stay with. As the story unfolds, it includes thrilling moments such as Harry's courageous confrontation with a mad dog, showcasing his bravery and foreshadowing further adventures during a time of great unrest.
