This two-heroed tale is about Harry Furness, a Cavalier, and Herbert Rippinghall, a Roundhead. How will these two young lads remain true to their conscience and still remain friends in a turbulent, troubled time?

Beautiful pictoral covers in a burnished red cloth and brighter yet of the same with black illustrations. A fabulous copy for the collectors library. Unmarked and spotless interior.
Small stamp of previous owners name and town lower left corner of endpaper. Slightly toned pages age appropriate. Factory faint green page edges when closed.

While most of the 122 books he wrote were for children, he also wrote adult novels, non-fiction such as The March to Magdala and Those Other Animals, short stories for the likes of The Boy's Own Paper and edited the Union Jack, a weekly boy's magazine.
His children's novels typically revolved around a boy or young man living in troubled times. These ranged from the Punic War to more recent conflicts such as the Napoleonic Wars or the American Civil War.

Excellent read for the boys in war buff, civil or American wars, or for your own vintage library.
