"The Dare Boys of 1776" by Stephen Angus Douglas Cox is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on two brothers, Dick and Tom Dare, who are spirited youths living in a time of great excitement and turmoil as America declares its independence from British rule. They embody the youthful fervor and bravery of the period, often finding themselves in the midst of conflicts fueled by their passion for liberty. At the start of the narrative, the brothers are caught up in the celebrations surrounding the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia. Their excitement, however, soon turns to danger when they are ambushed by Tory sympathizers on their way home. This confrontation sets the stage for their subsequent adventures as they join the Continental Army in search of their father, who has been captured by Tories. The tale opens with vibrant depictions of the fervent emotions of the time and escalating tensions, providing an engaging introduction to the challenges and adventures that the Dare brothers will face in their quest for freedom and family.
