The Boy Scouts at Mobilization Camp by Robert Shaler
"The Boy Scouts at Mobilization Camp" by Robert Shaler is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of Boy Scouts, particularly focusing on characters Hugh Hardin, Bud Morgan, and Blake Merton, as they navigate the challenges that arise during their journey to a military mobilization camp. Set against the backdrop of national excitement surrounding the mobilization for military service, the boys find themselves thwarted
by various obstacles and a mysterious adversary. At the start of the book, Hugh and Bud express their eagerness to visit the nearby mobilization camp, where Battery K, a local artillery unit, has been sent for service. The narrative quickly introduces a sense of urgency as Blake Merton seeks help for his cousin Felix Gregory, who is at risk of losing his inheritance due to a misunderstanding with his guardian. Throughout the opening chapters, the boys face mechanical car troubles, encounter a suspicious man who seems to thwart their efforts, and confront the flames of a burning bridge. As tension builds, the opening portion sets up their quest to reach the camp in time to help Felix, establishing a thrilling atmosphere filled with camaraderie, adventure, and the spirit of service embodied by the Boy Scouts.
