"The Outdoor Chums on the Lake; Or, Lively Adventures on Wildcat Island" by Captain Quincy Allen is a fictional adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of young boys known as the Outdoor Chums—Frank, Jerry, Bluff, and Will—as they embark on an exciting camping trip to Wildcat Island. Their adventure quickly escalates as they encounter a series of mishaps, including a steamboat fire and a robbery, setting the stage for deeper mysteries and potential danger ahead. At the start of the novel, the Outdoor Chums are engaged in a canoe race on Lake Camalot when they notice smoke coming from the steamboat "Eastern Star". Rushing to help, they find themselves in the midst of a chaotic fire situation, where Frank leads a heroic effort to extinguish the flames and assist the panicked passengers. The plot thickens as a passenger announces the theft of a valuable packet during the chaos, implicating two suspicious tramps who had boarded the steamboat. As the boys pursue the fugitives, they decide to embark on a camping expedition to Wildcat Island, where they hope to uncover both the identity and motives of these two rogues, while also facing the thrilling prospect of encountering a mysterious wild man rumored to inhabit the island.
