Summary "Tenderfoot Squad; or, Camping at Raccoon Lodge" by Captain Alan Douglas is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of Boy Scouts, particularly focusing on Elmer Chenowith and his friends, as they set off on a camping trip at Raccoon Bluff. Throughout their journey and activities in the wilderness, they encounter various challenges, including their interactions with local characters like Jem Shock and the mysterious backstory of a talented boy named Conrad. The opening of the book introduces the main characters as they pile into a car and prepare for their camping adventure, brimming with excitement and camaraderie. Elmer, the leader of the Wolf Patrol, takes charge and is determined to teach his inexperienced friends, Rufus and Alec, the skills needed for survival in the wild, while also dealing with the enigmatic figure of Jem Shock, a suspected poacher. As they arrive at Raccoon Bluff, the group begins to settle in, highlighting themes of friendship, learning, and personal growth through the challenges they face in the woods. The narrative hints at both the joys and trials of scouting, establishing a foundation for the adventures that lie ahead. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
