| Summary | "The Dare Boys in Vincennes" by Stephen Angus Douglas Cox is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around two brothers, Dick and Tom Dare, as they embark on a perilous journey during the American Revolutionary War to deliver a critical message to Fort Vincennes. Their mission is fraught with danger, as they navigate British lines while their friend Ben recovers from injury and is unable to accompany them. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Dick and Tom as they are assigned a secretive mission by a general in Charleston. As they prepare to leave, they interact with Ben, who is recovering from wounds sustained in battle, and their funny yet bumbling comrade, Fritz. The narrative quickly picks up tension as Dick sets off on the dangerous trip, underscoring themes of camaraderie, bravery, and the unpredictable nature of war. The opening sets the stage for a series of adventures filled with espionage, near captures, and thrilling escapes, establishing an engaging premise for readers who enjoy action-packed tales from the American Revolution.
