| Summary | "Roy Blakeley's Bee-line Hike" by Percy Keese Fitzhugh is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Roy Blakeley, a spirited boy scout, and his friends, the Silver Fox Patrol, as they embark on a humorous and adventurous hike to reach a tree they spot on the ridge. The narrative is infused with the camaraderie and whimsical antics of young scouts, particularly emphasizing the character of Pee-wee Harris, whose exaggerated enthusiasm adds a layer of comic relief. The opening of the book sets the stage for the upcoming adventure, introducing the characters, particularly Roy and Pee-wee, along with the concept of their "bee-line hike." The lively dialogue showcases the boys' banter and their preparations for the journey, along with their light-hearted views about camping, scouting, and the prospect of obtaining new patrol members. As they plan to hike straight west towards the tree, their resolve is tested when they comically confront potential obstacles and engage in humorous discussions about their scouting duties, ultimately establishing the adventurous and fun spirit that permeates the entire narrative.
