Summary: "In the Days of Washington: A Story of the American Revolution" by William Murray Graydon is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative is set during the turbulent times of the American Revolution, particularly focusing on the experiences of Nathan Stanbury, a young patriot who becomes embroiled in the conflict against British rule. The book delves into themes of bravery, loyalty, and the challenges faced by those living through groundbreaking historical events. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Nathan, a spirited and intelligent lad residing with Cornelius De Vries in Philadelphia in 1778. Following a mysterious summons, Nathan is dispatched to assist with critical communications between loyalists and the American forces under General Washington. As he navigates the dangers of British-occupied Philadelphia, Nathan’s determination to serve his country shines through, despite the threats and challenges posed by both his environment and his own risky escapades. This opening sets the stage for an adventurous tale steeped in the historical context of the American struggle for independence. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
