The Son of a Hundred Fathers: Or Daring Deeds in Dangerous Days is a novel written by Robert Overton and first published in 1899. The story is set in China during the Boxer Rebellion, a violent anti-foreigner movement that took place in 1900. The main character, a young British boy named Jack, is the son of a wealthy merchant who is killed during the rebellion. Jack is taken in by a group of Chinese rebels who call themselves the Hundred Fathers and is trained in their ways. He becomes a skilled fighter and eventually leads the Hundred Fathers in battle against the foreign forces. Along the way, Jack must navigate the complexities of Chinese culture and politics, as well as his own loyalty to his British heritage. The novel is a thrilling adventure story that explores themes of identity, loyalty, and cultural conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
