Occasionally, I would start to become interested in a story thread, and then realize that interest was of the “train wreck” variety. ![]() They are pathetic, mean, spiteful…they are not characters I care enough about to want to invest my time. But I cannot care about any…any of these people. ![]() There is a build to what I saw as the climax (the night of the big party) that is slow, deliberate, inevitable, and revealing. The details and the characterizations are excellent. ![]() I suppose I understand why it is so revered. A bunch of horrible people take a transatlantic voyage from Mexico to Germany, treat each other horribly, and end the voyage nearly as horrible as when they first arrived.Okay, if you haven’t figured it out from my synopsis, I did not like this book. ![]()

From there, the story unfolds.Ĭaptain Frederick Marryat (J– August 9, 1848) was an English Royal Navy officer, novelist, and a contemporary and acquaintance of Charles Dickens, noted today as an early pioneer of the sea story. Fate sent them into the hands of an old forester, Jacob Armitage, and they escaped to his cottage. Then, word came to them that the Roundheads were going to burn down their estate, Arnwood. His four children were left orphaned when their mother died of grief. In the midst of all were the Beverlies, the family of a faithful Cavalier, who died in service of the king. But, for a long time, neither could find it. This story of adventure, treachery, and love takes place during the English Civil War, when fellow countrymen are found enemies and are set against each other, Roundhead and Cavalier, Parliament and the King. Captain Marryat's The Children of the New Forest is a wonderful tale in narrative, historically rich and quite fascinating. ![]() |
