  • In the Rockies with Kit Carson

    Late one afternoon when the sunlight was slanting through the trees and wavering upon the adobe walls of the Pueblo of Los Angeles, when the only sounds were the whispering winds in the higher boughs, and the thrumming of a stringed instrument from the soldiers’ quarters, a tall Spanish mule came clattering into the village with two boys astride its back. They were bronzed, sinewy looking ... Read more

  • The Young Continentals at Lexington

    The smart little roan mare drew up at the gate of the Cooper place, and Ben Cooper leaned over and lifted the latch with the loop of his riding-whip. The gate was still creaking open when the lad noticed old Stephen Comegies stumping along the road on his gouty legs, and leaning heavily upon a stout oaken staff. “Good-morning, Mr. Comegies,” saluted Ben, cheerily. But old Stephen seemed not to ... Read more

  • On the Border with Andrew Jackson: The Buckskin Books

    “Much good place for camp! Heap fine water!” It was a young Cherokee brave who spoke; from the back of his wiry little sorrel horse he pointed ahead to a small stream which could be seen winding its way among the trees. “Yes; it looks as if it had been made for a camp, Running Elk,” replied a bronzed athletic white boy. “What do you say, Frank, shall we pitch the tent there to-night?” Frank ...

  • The Young Continentals at Bunker Hill

    The tall bay horse and the little roan mare went at a hard gallop down the long, gentle descent of a hill. Both were flecked with foam, for the going was hard, despite the brisk April weather. “How is the mare taking it?” asked Ezra Prentiss, after a time, drawing in the bay and patting his arched neck encouragingly. The roan snorted and shook her head as though trying to answer for herself. “It’s ... Read more

  • The Young Continentals at Monmouth

    “Do you know what to-morrow will be, Ben Cooper?” The speaker was a dwarfish looking lad whose big head and upstanding crest of hair gave him a most curious appearance. “To-morrow,” replied the second boy, promptly, “will be New Year’s day.” The dwarf shifted his leather belt so that his huge service pistol might hang more comfortably; and his voice, when he spoke again, contained a note of ...

  • In Kentucky with Daniel Boone

    Along the trail which wound along the banks of the Yadkin, in North Carolina, rode a tall, sinewy man; he had a bronzed, resolute face, wore the hunting shirt, leggins and moccasins of the backwoods, and had hanging from one shoulder a long flint-locked rifle. A small buck, which this unerring weapon of the hunter had lately brought down, lay across his saddle bow. Away along the trail, at a place ... Read more

  • Fighting King George

    “The wind’s changing again, Cole,” said Tom Deering, as he threw his rudder handle to leeward in order that the sheet might catch the full benefit of the breeze. The person to whom he spoke was a negro, young in years but of colossal size; as he sat amidships in the skiff, with the sheet rope in his hand, his sleeveless shirt showing his mighty arms bare to the shoulder, he resembled a statue of ...

  • Special Detective (Ashton-Kirk)

    ASHTON-KIRK is a young man of means and position. The unusual has a sort of fascination for him; his subtle perception, and keen, direct habit of mind cause him to delight in the investigation of those crimes which have proved too shadowy for the police. In “Ashton-Kirk, Investigator,” another book dealing with his experiences, he was concerned with the strange case of the murder of the ... Read more

  • With John Paul Jones

    “Who is that man that is so much at the Wheelocks’ just now?”asked young Walter Stanton of his friend Philip Morgan. “Some Tory friend, I suppose. I don’t like him; see the sneer upon his face as he looks at the members upon the steps of the State House.” It was about noon on a day late in September in the year 1777. A group of young men and boys were lounging upon some benches in the shade of two ... Read more

  • In Texas with Davy Crockett

    The towering stacks of the steamboat “Mediterranean” sent their clouds of smoke, black and wind rent, across the sky; her sharp bow cut the yellow waters of the Mississippi and dashed the spray as high as her rails. The cabins were thronged with passengers; the forward deck was tiered high with bales and barrels and boxes of merchandise. Two boys sat by the rail upon the upper deck; their faces ... Read more
