Summary | "The Boy Scouts at the Canadian Border" by John Henry Goldfrap is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of young scouts, specifically Rob Blake, Tubby Hopkins, and Andy Bowles, as they embark on a quest in the Maine wilderness aimed at locating Tubby’s Uncle George, who is hunting in Canada. The book captures themes of exploration, camaraderie, and patriotism amidst the backdrop of World War I. At the start of the novel, the trio of scouts is depicted amidst their journey, already two days into their expedition as they navigate through the rugged terrain of Maine. The opening emphasizes humorous interactions among the boys, especially between Tubby and Andy, as they tackle the challenges of their adventure, including physical hardships and the quest for survival skills. As they discuss the current situation in Canada, especially concerning the war, they become aware of the potential trouble brewing across the border. Their exploration leads them to a logging camp where they hope to find clues about Uncle George's whereabouts, setting the stage for further adventures and challenges that lie ahead. This first chapter effectively establishes the tone and stakes of their expedition, hinting at both camaraderie and the excitement of youthful adventure in undisturbed nature.
