The Children of the New Forest by Frederick Marryat
3.0
This isn't really Children of the New Forest, it's really the eldest son's story - Edward. The two youngest daughters have little personality, and the other son, whilst at least given a personality and something to do, is not the main focus.
I enjoyed this as a child, but it hasn't kept it's charm. The end of the book seems rushed, with about 4 years crammed into a few pages. I would have been more interested to know more about Edwards time fighting.
I probably won't re-read this.
