Summary: "True to the Old Flag: A Tale of the American War of Independence" by G. A. Henty is a historical novel written during the late 19th century. The story unfolds against the backdrop of the American Revolutionary War, focusing on the experiences and adventures of a young boy named Harold as he navigates the dangerous frontier life amidst growing tensions between American colonists and British forces. The opening of the narrative introduces readers to the Welch family living on a frontier farm in Concord, Massachusetts, in the years leading up to the revolution. As tensions rise, Mrs. Welch expresses her fears about the potential for violence in the area, while her husband, Mr. Welch, prepares for possible Indian incursions. The critical moment escalates with alarming news of Indian raids, leading to a dramatic setting where Harold must demonstrate courage and resourcefulness as he faces imminent threats, including a surprise attack by Indians. This sets the stage for a tale of bravery, survival, and loyalty amid the turbulent times of America’s fight for independence. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
