| Summary | "The Rival Campers; Or, The Adventures of Henry Burns" by Ruel Perley Smith is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on a group of boys, including the main character Henry Burns, who embark on various camping adventures during their summer on Grand Island. Their lively exploits are filled with friendship, mischief, and suspense, as they navigate challenges related to camping and boating. The opening of the story introduces the picturesque fishing village of Southport and establishes a sense of anticipation among three brothers—George, Arthur, and Joe Warren—as they await the arrival of their friends Tom Harris and Bob White. The boys are initially disappointed when their friends are not on the steamboat, but excitement builds as they devise a playful plan to surprise the campers with a prepared tent at their camping site. As the narrative unfolds, foreboding hints of an impending storm set the stage for adventure and danger, particularly for Tom and Bob as they attempt to cross the turbulent waters in their canoe. The witty banter among the boys and the vivid setting wonderfully capture the spirit of youthful adventure and camaraderie. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
