This captivating narrative recounts the experiences of two young boys, Dick and Ned, as they embark on a journey into the wilderness of Florida's Everglades, filled with exploration, hunting, and encounters with nature. The book promises thrilling escapades as the boys navigate challenges while in pursuit of adventure and camaraderie. The opening of the narrative introduces us to Dick and his friend Ned, who are caught trying to explain their absence from school after a camping trip.
