| Summary | "The Y. M. C. A. Boys on Bass Island: or, The Mystery of Russabaga Camp" by Brooks Henderley is a novel aimed at young readers, written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of boys from Cliffwood as they embark on summer camp adventures at Bass Island, where they expect to encounter excitement, camaraderie, and mystery. Central characters include Dick Horner, who appears to take a leadership role, and Asa Gardner, who is dealing with the challenges of overcoming his troubled past. The opening of the book sets the stage with the boys engaged in a lively game of ball, showcasing their competitive spirit and camaraderie. The narrative introduces various characters, including Peg, Dick, and Nat, along with the community dynamics that influence their interactions. A sudden fire at Bratton’s barn shifts their focus from the game to heroic moments as they rush to investigate the blaze. The group is soon on their way to camp, carrying the promise of adventures to come, including the mysterious presence of a "thief" that looms over their stay. This initial chapter hints at themes of friendship, leadership, and the spirit of adventure, drawing readers into the world of these young campers. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
