    Before the Hardy Boys there were books featuring Boy Scouts. I think they involved WWI and German spies. Sorry but I am not going to read this book until I retire, maybe. As this book was released in 1921, just 10 years after the boy scouts had been created I am thinking these books were created to promote the Scouting. Not sure if the book was actually printed in 1921, there is no other date in the book and it is definitely old.
    Books like these were often written by various authors using the same name. They had a writing format they had to use. This is true of the Hardy Boys which had a fictional author's name.
    Which reminds me I got a knife which may mor may not be a Boy Scout knife so stay tuned to this sire.
