The Rover Boys on the Great Lakes: Or the Secret of the Island Cave (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Rover Boys on the Great Lakes: Or the Secret of the Island Cave

MY dear boys: This volume, The Rover Boys on the Great Lakes, is a complete story in itself, but forms the fifth volume of the Rover Boys Series for Young Americans.

When first I started this series with The Rover Boys at School, I had no idea of extend ii the line beyond three or four volumes. But the second book, The Rover Boys on the Ocean, immediately called for a third, The Rover Boys in the Jungle, and this finished, many boys wanted to know what would happen next, and so I must needs give them The Rover Boys Out West. Still they were not satisfied; hence the volume now in your hands.

So far we have followed the doings of Dick, Tom, and Sam at dear old Putnam Hall, with many larks and sports; then out upon the broad Atlantic in a daring chase which came pretty close to ending in sad disaster; next into the interior of 5 Africa on a quest of grave importance; and lastly' out into the mountainous regions of the wild West, to locate a mining claim belonging to Mr. Anderson Rover.
