Résumé : "Roy Blakeley in the Haunted Camp" by Percy Keese Fitzhugh is a captivating tale set in the aftermath of World War I, focusing on a group of boy scouts from Bridgeboro, New Jersey. The story begins with the scouts' discovery of an old, abandoned letter in a dilapidated shack near the deserted Camp Merritt. The letter, written by a soldier to his mother, was never sent and becomes a mystery that intrigues the scouts, especially the enthusiastic Pee-wee Harris. The scouts, led by Roy Blakeley, embark on a mission to help a young man named Blythe, who is struggling to make ends meet by dismantling old camp buildings for a salvage company. The boys decide to assist him, combining their love for camping with the opportunity to earn some money. As they camp at the old military site, they engage in humorous banter and camaraderie, bringing life to the desolate camp. The narrative weaves together themes of friendship, adventure, and the lingering echoes of war, as the scouts explore the camp and uncover its secrets. The story highlights the scouts' resourcefulness, teamwork, and the spirit of doing a good turn, all while maintaining a light-hearted and adventurous tone.
