DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Rover Boys in Camp, or the Rivals of Pine Island MY dear boys: The Rover Boys in Camp is a complete story in itself, but forms the eighth volume Of The Rover Boys Series for Young Americans. As I have mentioned before, when I started this line of stories I had in mind to make not more than three, or possibly four, volumes. But the publication Of Rover Boys at School, Rover Boys on the Ocean, Rover Boys in the Jungle, and Rover Boys Out West did not appear to satisfy my readers, and so I followed with Rover Boys on the Great Lakes, Rover Boys in the Mountains, and lastly with Rover Boys on Land and Sea. But the publishers say there is still a cry for more! More! And so I now present to you this new Rover Boys book, which relates the adventures of Dick, Tom, and Sam, and a number Of their Old-time friends, at home.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Boy Scouts of Woodcraft Camp In this and succeeding volumes, The Boy Scouts on Swift River, The Boy Scouts on Lost Trail, The Boy Scouts in a Trapper's Camp, I have sought to portray the life of such a school camp under Boy Scout rules. The Boy Scouts of Woodcraft Camp has been written with a twofold purpose: To stimulate on the part of every one of my boy readers a desire to master for himself the mysteries of nature's great out-of-doors, the secrets of field and wood and stream, and to show by example what the Boy Scout's oath means in the development of character. Many of the incidents in the succeeding pages are drawn from my own experiences. And if, because of reading this story, one more boy is led to the Shrine of the Hemlock, there to ih hale the pungent incense from a camp-fire and to master the art of tossing a flapjack, I shall feel that I have not written in vain.
