Résumé : "The Boy Scouts on the Range" by John Henry Goldfrap follows the thrilling adventures of Rob Blake, Merritt Crawford, and Tubby Hopkins, members of the Eagle Patrol from Hampton, Long Island. Invited by their friend Harry Harkness to visit his father's cattle ranch in Arizona, the boys embark on a journey filled with unexpected challenges and encounters. Upon arriving in the desert town of Mesaville, they face hostility from local cowboys, particularly Clark Jennings and Jess Randell, who are determined to prove their toughness. Rob's quick thinking and physical prowess help him stand up to the bullies, earning the respect of the onlookers. As the boys travel to the Harkness ranch, they encounter a group of Moqui Indians who demand money, revealing a plot by Clark Jennings to cause trouble for the newcomers. Despite this setback, the boys remain undeterred and continue their journey, witnessing the majestic yet elusive Silver Tip bear along the way. Inspired by their experiences, they decide to form a Boy Scout patrol in the West, aiming to assist the local Indian agent, Jeffries Mayberry, in managing the Moqui situation. The narrative is a blend of adventure, camaraderie, and the spirit of scouting, as the boys navigate the challenges of the Arizona wilderness. Their journey is not only a test of their scouting skills but also an opportunity to forge new friendships and demonstrate the values of courage and resourcefulness.
