Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tom Slade's Double Dare by Percy Keese Fitzhugh is about young Tom Slade, who helps lead the new Boy Scouts at Camp Temple. Boy Scout Hervey Willetts has a rebellious streak and gives Tom Slade a difficult time. Excerpt: "If it were not for the very remarkable part played by the scouts in this strange business, perhaps it would have been just as well if the whole matter had been allowed to die when the newspaper excitement subsided. Singularly enough, that part of the curious drama which unfolded itself at Temple Camp is the very part that was never material for glaring headlines. The main occurrence is familiar enough to the inhabitants of the neighborhood about the scout camp, but the sequel has never been told, for scouts do not seek notoriety, and the quiet woodland community in its sequestered hills is as remote from the turmoil and gossip of the world as if it were located at the North Pole. But I know the story of Aaron Harlowe from beginning to end, and the part that Tom Slade played in it, and all the latter history of Goliath, as they called him. And I purpose to set all these matters down for your entertainment, for I think that first and last they make a pretty good camp-fire yarn."
