Résumé

"Camp Fires of the Wolf Patrol" by Captain Alan Douglas is a captivating tale that follows the adventures of the Hickory Ridge Boy Scouts as they embark on their first camping expedition. The story begins with the scouts, led by Scout Master Mr. Roderic Garrabrant and Assistant Scout Master Elmer Chenowith, marching towards the Sweetwater River. The troop, consisting of the Wolf, Beaver, and Eagle Patrols, is eager to test their recently acquired scouting skills in a real-world setting. As they set up camp, the boys face various challenges, including encounters with wildlife and the need to demonstrate their survival skills. The narrative highlights the scouts' camaraderie and teamwork as they navigate through the wilderness. Elmer, with his extensive knowledge of outdoor life, plays an intermediary role in guiding the troop through difficult situations, such as rescuing a fellow scout from drowning and dealing with a rattlesnake encounter. The story also delves into the personal growth of the scouts, as they learn to overcome their fears and work together to solve problems. Throughout the book, the scouts engage in various activities that test their abilities, such as setting up tents, cooking, and practicing first aid. The story emphasizes the importance of preparation, discipline, and adjustment, as the boys learn valuable lessons that contribute to their development as responsible and resourceful individuals. The book concludes with the scouts successfully completing their camping trip, having gained confidence and a deeper understanding of the principles of scouting.
