| Summary | "The Pirate of Jasper Peak" by Cornelia Meigs is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a young boy named Hugh Arnold, who arrives in the seemingly dull town of Rudolm, Minnesota, to stay while his father serves in World War I. Unbeknownst to him, Hugh is about to embark on a thrilling adventure involving friendship, mystery, and the enigmatic figure of Half-Breed Jake, known as the pirate of Jasper Peak. The opening of the novel introduces Hugh as he steps off a delayed train at the isolated station of Rudolm. Initially perplexed and disappointed by the unexciting landscape, he begins to explore his new surroundings while grappling with the absence of his father. When he learns about his friends, John and Dick Edmonds, who have gone missing during a hunting expedition, Hugh realizes that his time in Rudolm will be far more adventurous than he had anticipated. As he interacts with local townsfolk, Indian guides, and navigates his emotions during this time, the mystery of the boys’ disappearance unfolds, hinting at dangers linked to the dubious pirate figure who lurks in the wilderness nearby.
