A March on London: Being a Story of Wat Tyler's Insurrection
1898
England, 1381. A kingdom trembles as tens of thousands of peasants, led by the fiery Wat Tyler, march on London demanding an end to serfdom and crushing taxation. Into this cauldron of revolution steps Edgar Ormskirk, the sheltered son of a scholar, whose comfortable world shatters when he witnesses firsthand the desperation and dignity of the common people he has never truly seen. Raised in quiet academia, Edgar must now confront a choice that will define him: remain loyal to the order that raised him, or join the rebellion and risk everything for a glimpse of justice. G.A. Henty crafts a vigorous adventure from one of English history's most explosive moments. The novel pulses with the energy of a nation in upheaval, burning tax records, stormed prisons, the thunder of popular fury, but never loses sight of its beating heart: one young man's awakening to the moral complexities of loyalty, leadership, and what it truly costs to challenge the powers that be. For readers who love historical adventure with substance, this is a rousing tale of revolution seen through the eyes of a generation forced to grow up too fast.
