About
Excellent children's story following the adventures of a young nobleman and his family who raise a regiment to fight for King Charles I in the English Civil War. This is part of a series based around successive generations of the the Carey family from Llanstephen in South Wales and must rank as one of the best in the series. Fast-paced, with vivid action and credible characterization, it is a fantastic piece of writing.
