| Summary | "The Hidden Children" by Robert W. Chambers is a historical novel likely written during the early 20th century. The book delves into the tumultuous era of the American Revolutionary War, intertwining elements of romance and historical fact, as it presents a rich tapestry of characters, including soldiers, townsfolk, and Native Americans from the Iroquois Confederacy. The opening of "The Hidden Children" introduces readers to the war-torn scenery of Westchester County, where two officers, Lieutenant Boyd and Ensign Loskiel, are on a mission to recruit men for their regiment amidst the chaos of conflict. They encounter the aftermath of violence at Hays's Tavern, witnessing the despair of the local people as they discuss the grim realities of war and its psychological toll. As they navigate their way through the desolate landscape, the officers' reflections on duty, honor, and the human cost of war paint a poignant picture of their struggle, setting the tone for the intricate relationships and evolving plot to follow.
