Frederick Marryat’s The Children of the New Forest is a classic historical adventure novel set during the English Civil War. Originally published in 1847, this coming-of-age tale follows the fortunes of four orphaned children—Edward, Humphrey, Alice, and Edith Beverley—who are forced to flee their noble home after their father, a royalist officer, is killed in battle.
Rescued by a kindhearted forester, the children must learn to survive in the vast and untamed New Forest, far from the luxuries of their aristocratic upbringing. As they adapt to their new life in the wilderness, they develop resilience, self-reliance, and a deep appreciation for nature. However, the looming political turmoil threatens their safety, and Edward, the eldest, must ultimately decide where his loyalties lie in the conflict between the Cavaliers and the Roundheads.
Filled with rich historical detail, thrilling escapades, and timeless themes of courage, loyalty, and perseverance, The Children of the New Forest is a captivating story that continues to enchant readers of all ages. This audiobook brings Marryat’s adventurous tale to life, offering a heartwarming and inspiring journey into England’s past.
