| Summary | "The Black Box: A Tale of Monmouth's Rebellion" by W. Bourne Cooke is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. It explores the tumultuous events surrounding Monmouth's Rebellion, with the young protagonist Michael Fane at the center of the unfolding drama. The book delves into themes of loyalty, political intrigue, and the implications of hidden secrets, particularly revolving around a mysterious black box that holds the potential to change the course of history. The opening of the novel introduces us to Michael Fane, who has just turned eighteen and is eager to embark on a life of adventure. On his birthday, he has an unexpected encounter with a strange man named Tubal Ammon, who shares a harrowing tale of survival among savages in the South Seas. This odd meeting sets the stage for Michael's unfolding journey into the chaotic world of political rebellion. As he returns home, he finds his father, Gilbert Fane, deep in the midst of significant secrets related to the monarchy and his own family's past. This revelation of a hidden black box containing crucial documents ignites Michael's desire for soldiering amidst a potential uprising led by the Duke of Monmouth against King James II, setting in motion the events that will test his courage and resolve.
