Extractions: A short biography of George Alfred Henty A GREAT Briton!! G. A. Henty (1832 - 1902). A contemporary of George Alfred Henty once described him as a man of strong will, reasonable ambitions and a hard, steady worker. He also said that Henty was a burly man with a good humored English sort of face, who always smoked a short, well-colored clay pipe. Henty was born on December 8, 1832 at Trumpington, near Cambridge, England. He was the eldest son of a stockbroker. He was educated at Westminster School and at Cambridge, where he enrolled in 1852, but he left without obtaining a degree. With the outbreak of the Crimean War in 1854, Henty and his brother joined the British Army. They were put on the commissariat staff of a hospital, where they were concerned with supplying food for the staff and patients. In 1855, they were sent to the Crimea. The following year, Henty's brother died of cholera. Henty wrote about some of his war adventures in a series of letters which described the siege of the Russian fortress of Sevastopol. The letters were accepted for publication by a newspaper, but Henty did not show any interest then in writing as a career.

Extractions: Boer Wars by G.A. Henty (1832 - 1902) CHAPTER II. THE RED FLAG. D ICK S plan was soon carried into effect, and the little red flag flew as an appeal for help ten feet above the snow in the lonely valley. Down in Castleton events had turned out just as the boys had anticipated. The night of the snow-storm there was no sleep for their parents, and at daybreak, next morning, Mr. Humphreys and Mr. Jackson set out on foot through the storm for the distant farm. They kept to the road, but it took them four hours to reach the farm, for the drifts were many feet deep in the hollows, and they had the greatest difficulty in making their way through. When, upon their arrival, they found the boys had left before the gale began, their consternation and grief were extreme, and they started at once on their return to Castleton. Search-parties were immediately organized, and these, in spite of the fury of the storm, searched the hills in all directions. After the first day, when it was found that they were not at any of the shepherds' huts scattered among the hills, all hopes of finding them alive ceased. So hopeless was it considered, that few parties went out on the three following days; but on the fifth, when the snow-storm ceased and the sun shone out, numbers of men again tramped the hills in the vague hope of finding some sign of the missing boys; they returned disheartened. The snow was two feet deep everywhere, twenty in many of the hollows.

Without even a single storm to break the monotony they touched at Capetown and Port Elizabeth, and at last arrived at Durban. The journey had not been too long for the boys; everything was so perfectly new to them that they were never tired of watching the sea and looking for porpoises and the shoals of fish, over which hovered thousands of birds. Once or twice they saw a whale spout, while flying-fish were matters of hourly occurrence. They had prodigious appetites, and greatly enjoyed the food, which was altogether different to that to which they had been accustomed. They had stopped at Madeira and St. Vincent, where great stocks of delicious fruit had been taken on board. Altogether they were quite sorry when they arrived at the end of the voyage. The landing was effected in large boats, as the

Extractions: REPRESENTATIONS OF EMPIRE: a case study, Zululand 1879 This passage is extracted form G.A.Henty`s The Young Colonists . Most of the book is based on the adventures of two adolescent boys, living in Natal, who get caught up in the Anglo-Zulu War. Unfortunately it is one of his dullest books regurgitating large descriptive passages of contemporary journalistic accounts of the war. The following telling passage describes the aftermath of the war in the life of one of the boys. THE YOUNG COLONISTS: A story of the Zulu and Boer Wars AFTER dividing Zululand into districts and appointing a chief to rule over each, General Wolseley marched his force against Secoceni, the chief whose hostile attitude had caused the Boers to accept the protectorate of England. This chief had maintained his defiant attitude, and, relying upon the strength of his hill-stronghold, had kept up an irregular war upon them, aided by the Swazis who came down from the north to assist him.

I found this review of 'In a Dark Wood Wandering' by Webmistress Laura Akers on the Web: "This is the first book that, upon reaching the final words, I immediately began reading all the way through again from the beginning. It is a novel about Charles d'Orleans, a French duke and poet who lived during the 1400s. His poetry much of it written in English prisons during his many years as a hostage of war is still vibrant today, and the book is true to the spirit of his own writings, showing us a man who truly valued love and beauty and who understood honor and responsibility."
