| Summary | "The Dare Boys in Virginia" by Stephen Angus Douglas Cox is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the daring adventures of two brothers, Dick and Tom Dare, along with their friend Ben Foster, as they engage in the American Revolutionary War. Set in the backdrop of Virginia during the tumultuous year of 1780, the narrative intertwines their heroic attempts to thwart the plans of the treacherous General Arnold and his British forces. The opening of the book introduces readers to the warm, inviting climate of Virginia compared to the harsh conditions they left behind in New York. The narrative focuses on the camaraderie between the characters as they settle into camp with their patriot regiment, led by Colonel Morris. Upon receiving orders for an important scouting mission to locate Arnold’s army, Dick Dare’s enthusiasm shines through. As the trio sets out on their quest, they observe the perilous landscape around them and soon come across a group of redcoats engaged in malevolent discussions targeting local patriots. The sense of urgency builds as they plot their next moves to warn the settlements of impending danger. This sets the stage for a thrilling series of events that promise both action and dramatic conflicts. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
