Published for the Boy Scouts of America, the book was intended to entertain Boy Scouts and their leaders on camping trips as well as to instill in them a passion for adventure. In "Silverhorns," written by Henry van Dyke, an experienced hunter named Dudley Hemenway shares stories with a Scotsman while waiting for their train to depart. Over cigars, they talk about moose hunting, and describe their desire to catch the elusive silverhorn. Zane Grey's "The Wild-Horse Hunter," a Western tale, begins with three hunters making camp in the wide-open wilderness. As night falls, they start a fire by a stream and recount their difficult day and their struggle to capture the legendary Wildfire. "The Hydrophobic Skunk" is a humorous tale by Irvin S. Cobb about a rare creature said to live at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Jack London's "That Spot," another story of wit and humor, follows a group of prospectors during the Klondike Gold Rush who try and fail to rid themselves of a stray dog that joins their expedition. The Boy Scout's Book of Campfire Stories is a collection that captures the essence of storytelling-adventure, humor, horror, and wisdom-for children and adults alike. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Boy Scout's Book of Campfire Stories is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.
