| Summary | "Hervey Willetts" by Percy Keese Fitzhugh is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the adventurous and reckless character of Hervey Willetts, a young boy whose carefree spirit and knack for getting into trouble often lead him to seed chaos around him, especially among the Boy Scouts he interacts with. His seemingly endless escapades are marked by both disobedience and bizarre acts of bravery, making him a complex figure within his camp. The opening of the novel introduces Hervey as a boy who revels in danger and defiance. He is described as possessing a "happy-go-lucky" attitude, often performing reckless stunts and engaging in disobedience without a care for the consequences. As he interacts with the other Scouts at Temple Camp, we see how his peculiar charm both attracts admiration and frustration from his peers and camp leaders alike. This playful yet troublesome nature sets the stage for Hervey's misadventures, including a crucial incident where he is involved in a false fire alarm that seems like a harmless prank but spins into a more serious situation with unintended repercussions.
