Description

Read aloud on audio MP3 by Jim Hodges. True to the Old Flag presents the story of the American struggle for Independence from a British perspective, thereby giving the reader considerable insight into the point of view of the Loyalists, who are said to comprise perhaps o­ne third of the colonial population.

Just before the outbreak of the American War for Independence, young Harold Wilson of Concord, Massachusetts, visits his cousins o­n the frontier, and quickly adapts to the life of a frontiersman. When Indians attack the Welch homestead, his quick thinking saves his life and that of his cousin Nelly. He returns to Concord in time to witness the battle of Lexington and Concord, and when his father is given command of a Loyalist company, he serves as a scout and undertakes several dangerous missions, including a long and dangerous trip in the middle of winter into the heart of Indian country to rescue Nelly and another captive. Captured at the battle of Kings Mountain and imprisoned in Richmond, he escapes and serves with the Royalist forces in South Carolina. After the surrender at Yorktown, he sails for England, later returning to the continent to settle in Canada.
