Summary "Frank Merriwell in Maine; Or, The Lure of 'Way Down East" by Burt L. Standish is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Frank Merriwell and his friends as they embark on an adventure in the Moosehead Lake region of Maine, engaging in various activities while encountering sports and comedic mishaps along the way. The narrative promises themes of friendship, bravery, and the moral development of young men as they navigate their youthful escapades. At the start of the book, Frank Merriwell and his companions are traveling on a steamboat across the scenic Moosehead Lake. The group consists of lively characters including Bruce Browning, Jack Diamond, and Hans Dunnerwust. Their journey takes a humorous turn when Hans is hilariously upended by a goat onboard the vessel, prompting laughter among his friends. As they arrive at their destination, the group prepares for camping adventures, but underlying tensions arise with the introduction of a guide, John Caribou, who carries a mysterious air about him. The opening establishes not only the character dynamics and setting but also foreshadows challenges and potential conflicts in their outdoor escapades. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
