Publisher's Synopsis
This is the fourth and last volume in Burgess' "Boy Scout Books," preceded by "The Boy Scouts of Woodcraft Camp," "The Boy Scouts on Swift River," and "The Boy Scouts on Lost Trail." In this story, Burgess inserts the Scouts into the life of the trapper, who in solitude and loneliness pits his skill against the cunning of the fur-bearers, and his courage and fortitude against the forces of Nature in her harshest and most relentless mood. Our hero, Walter, has one adventure after another. Fast-paced and sure to hold the reader's attention. Included in this Illustrated Edition of the 1915 version of "The Boy Scouts in a Trapper's Camp" are all seven original illustrations, rejuvenated, and 10 additional scout illustrations that are unique to this edition of the book.
