Reader Reviews
It is 1914, and the long anticipated Great War is beginning to engulf Europe. Over in England, the Boy Scouts are preparing to do whatever they can to help the United Kingdom in this time of need. Among them are Dick Mercer and Harry Fleming, an American Scout whose parents are temporarily living in England. And, when the commander at Ealing requests two Scouts for some unnamed service, Dick and Harry are quickly selected to go. But, before they know it, Dick and Harry soon find themselves swept into adventure and intrigue. There's a German spy ring operating in the country, and only those two intrepid Boy Scouts can unravel their fiendish plot. This book was first printed in 1921, and Colonel George Durston wrote many books for and about Boy Scouts. Though this book has a rather unlikely plot, it is a wonderful story of adventure, daring, action and good fun! Yes, I highly enjoyed this book and think that you will too. If you are a fan of early-twentieth century boys' fiction, then you really should read this book. [If you want a great, old-fashioned Boy Scout book, then you must read "Tom Slade" by Percy K. Fitzhugh, which is definitely the crown of the genre!]
