"The Dare Boys of 1776" by Stephen Angus Douglas Cox is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on two brothers, Dick and Tom Dare, who are spirited youths living in a time of great excitement and turmoil as America declares its independence from British rule.

This confrontation sets the stage for their subsequent adventures as they join the Continental Army in search of their father, who has been captured by Tories. The tale opens with vibrant depictions of the fervent emotions of the time and escalating tensions, providing an engaging introduction to the challenges and adventures that the Dare brothers will face in their quest for freedom and family.
