"Young Folks Magazine, Vol. I, No. 1, March 1902" by Various is a collection of stories, poems, and illustrations designed for young readers, published in the early 20th century. This inaugural issue features a mix of serialized narratives like "With Washington at Valley Forge" and poems such as “March,” aiming to entertain and educate children about history, nature, and moral values. The contents reflect themes relevant to youth, highlighting bravery, adventure, and the beauty of the world around them. The opening of the magazine introduces readers to "With Washington at Valley Forge," setting the stage in the summer of 1777 at the Three Oaks Inn. Readers meet Jonas Benson, the innkeeper, who is portrayed as a patriotic character anxious about his unwelcoming guests—Colonel Knowles, a British officer, and his daughter, Miss Lillian. The narrative hints at the escalating tension of the American Revolutionary War, as spies and skirmishes complicate life for ordinary people. A sense of urgency unfolds with the appearance of a dispatch-bearer pursued by British dragoons, drawing the reader into a thrilling adventure filled with danger and daring decisions.
