| Summary | "The Boy Scouts on War Trails in Belgium; Or, Caught Between Hostile Armies" by Herbert Carter is a fictional work aimed at young readers, written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds against the backdrop of World War I, following the adventures of a group of American Boy Scouts who find themselves caught in the turmoil of war as they attempt to reach Belgium to aid a sick friend’s mother. The main characters, Thad Brewster, Bumpus Hawtree, and Giraffe, display courage and camaraderie as they navigate the dangers of military conflicts and their determination to keep their promise drives the narrative. The opening of the book introduces the keen anticipation of the three scouts as they await news from their friend Allan, who is gathering mail while tensions escalate in Europe. As they travel down the Rhine, they notice the mobilization of troops and a growing sense of dread regarding an impending war. The mood turns somber with Allan's news of the German invasion into Belgium, triggering a resolve among the boys to journey through the chaos to reach Antwerp. This sets the stage for their daring attempts to cross into Belgium amidst hostile armies, showcasing their adaptability and bravery in the face of unforeseen challenges.
