| Summary | "Tom Slade on Overlook Mountain" by Percy Keese Fitzhugh is a novel written in the early 20th century. It follows the adventures of Tom Slade, a young scout who embodies the spirit of exploration and camaraderie. The story delves into themes of loyalty, resilience, and self-discovery as Tom encounters a cast of colorful characters, including an elderly wanderer named Caleb Dyker, whose past deeply intertwines with the book’s unfolding mysteries. At the start of the novel, Tom is introduced as an assistant at Temple Camp, feeling restless and yearning for adventure following his experiences in the war. His life takes an unexpected turn when he meets Caleb Dyker, a poignant figure displaced by the creation of the Ashokan Reservoir, which has submerged his hometown of West Hurley. Their meeting near a spring sets off a series of revelations, as Tom becomes increasingly drawn into Caleb's past and the lingering effects of his grandson's troubled history tied to a notorious murder. The opening establishes Tom's longing for adventure, his compassionate nature, and hints at the significant challenges and adventures he will face on Overlook Mountain.
