| 520 | _a"Iron Hand, Chief of the Tory League; or, The Double Face" by Frederick Forest is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set during the American Revolutionary War and follows Captain Edgar Sherwood, a young aristocrat of English descent who, feeling wronged by his homeland, joins the colonial cause against British rule. As tensions rise, the narrative unfolds around Sherwood's quarreling with his betrothed's Tory father and his subsequent heroic actions against the Tory League, a group led by the nefarious Iron Hand. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Sherwood's beliefs and convictions as he debates enlisting in the Continental army with his fiancée's father, Thomas Lear. Their heated argument leads to a severance of their relationship, propelling Sherwood into action. Soon after, he is positioned with his regiment at Fort Ann, receiving news of an impending attack from the Tory League. As the soldiers prepare for battle, Sherwood's loyalties and personal struggles are highlighted, particularly as he contemplates the dangers of love and war. The opening sets up an emotionally charged atmosphere that blends themes of duty, betrayal, and the fight for freedom, laying the groundwork for a tale of valor and conflict.
