"Camping on the St. Lawrence; Or, On the Trail of the Early Discoverers" by Everett T. Tomlinson is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a group of boys who embark on a camping trip along the picturesque St. Lawrence River, loosely inspired by the history of early explorers. As they navigate the waters, they engage in fishing, canoeing, and soaking up the rich naturalbeauty around them, while also learning about the valor of the men who first explored this significant waterway. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Jock, a lively and optimistic teenager who is busy preparing for the camping trip along with his friends, Bob, Bert, and Ben. The opening chapters depict their enthusiastic discussions about their plans, worries about missing their friend Bob, and the delightful anticipation of their upcoming adventures. They travel by train to their destination, where the excitement continues as they meet their guide Ethan. The opening sets the tone for a light-hearted yet educational exploration of friendship, teamwork, and the beauty of nature, hinting at the challenges and discoveries they will encounter during their camping experience.
