| 520 | _a"The First Capture; or, Hauling Down the Flag of England" by Harry Castlemon is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The book centers around the early days of the American Revolution, specifically focusing on a group of patriots in the colony of Maine who are stirred to action by the news of the Battle of Lexington. The main characters include Enoch Crosby, a loyal subject of Great Britain wrestling with his allegiance, and Zeke Lewis, who plans a bold scheme to capture a British schooner, showing the fervor and conflict that characterized this pivotal time. At the start of the story, the people of Machias react to the news of the battle between the patriots and British troops with astonishment and anger, prompting citizens like Zeke Lewis to rally for a local resistance. Enoch Crosby, while feeling loyalty to the King, grapples with the growing tyranny and the need to defend his community. The narrative unfolds with discussions of rebellion, the prospect of a ship capture, and the tension between Tories and patriots as they prepare to join the fight for their rights. The opening establishes a rich historical backdrop, setting the stage for the upcoming conflicts and personal struggles that the characters will face.
