"The Rover Boys in Camp; or, The Rivals of Pine Island" by Arthur M. Winfield is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the adventures of the Rover brothers—Dick, Tom, and Sam—who are returning home after a series of escapades that took them across the Pacific and through various perils. The narrative focuses on their experiences both at home and while camping, hinting at challenges posed by rivals and the importance of friendship and integrity. The opening of the novel introduces the Rover boys as they return home to Oak Run after their long travels. They are welcomed by their family and friends, and there’s a sense of joy in their reunion. The Rovers discuss their recent adventures, including being stranded on a deserted island, and they express their eagerness to return to Putnam Hall Academy. However, the adventure takes a darker turn with the unexpected return of Arnold Baxter, a former enemy who poses a fresh threat, leading to a series of alarming incidents that set the stage for the conflict and adventure that will unfold throughout the story.
