| Summary | "Tom Slade at Black Lake" by Percy Keese Fitzhugh is a novel written in the early 20th century. This story follows the adventures of Tom Slade, a former Boy Scout who has returned from World War I, struggling with the physical and emotional aftermath of his experiences. As he tries to reconnect with his old life and friends in the scout troop, Tom's character navigates the challenges of maturity, friendship, and the enduring spirit of scouting. The opening of the novel introduces Tom as he examines a map of Temple Camp, evoking feelings of nostalgia and homesickness as he recalls his past adventures as a scout. The reader learns about Tom's transition from a combat soldier back to civilian life, emphasizing his internal struggles, including shell shock and alienation from his peers. As he attempts to fulfill his responsibilities within the scout troop's office, a key conflict arises when Tom inadvertently assigns cabins that have long been used by his troop to another scout troop, leading to tension and misunderstanding with his friends. This sets the stage for Tom's journey as he strives to make amends and prove that his loyalty to scouting and his friends endures, despite the obstacles he faces.
