Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Red, White, and Green" by Herbert Hayens is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of the 1848 Hungarian Revolution, the story follows George Botskay and his brother Stephen as they navigate the tumultuous political landscape of the Austro-Hungarian Empire during a time of insurrection. The narrative centers around their complex feelings of loyalty: as Hungarians yearning for national rights, they are torn between supporting their fellow citizens in rebellion and their allegiance to the emperor. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to the brothers in Vienna amidst the chaos of a city in revolt. They engage in discussion about the unfolding insurrection, with Stephen expressing disdain for those rebelling against the emperor, while George prepares to warn a military official, Count Latour, of an imminent attack planned by insurrectionists. As tensions rise, the streets are filled with passionate crowds, armed and ready for action. The unfolding chaos reveals both the fervor and volatility of the populace, as well as George's dedication to protect what remains of royal authority. Through vivid descriptions and character interactions, the opening portion sets the stage for a gripping tale of loyalty, conflict, and the turbulent quest for freedom.
