Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rolf in the Woods: The Adventure of a Boy Scout With Indian Quonab and Little Dog Skookum Over Two Hundred Drawing In this story I have endeavoured to realize some of the influences that surrounded the youth of America a hundred years ago, and made of them, first, good citizens, and, later, in the day of peril, heroes that won the battles of Lake Erie, Plattsburg, and New Orleans, and the great sea fights of Porter, Bainbridge, Decatur, Lawrence, Perry, and MacDonough. I have especially dwelt in detail on the woodland and peace scouting in the hope that I may thus help other boys to follow the hard-climbing trail that leads to the higher uplands. For the historical events of 1812-14, I have consulted among books chiefly, Theodore Roosevelt´s "Naval War of 1812," Peter S. Palmer´s "History of Lake Champlain," and Walter Hill Crockett´s "A History of Lake Champlain," 1909. But I found another and more personal mine of information.
