The Golden Boys Along the River Allagash (1923) is an adventure
novel by L.P. Wyman and one of seven books in his vastly
underrated-and relatively unknown-Golden Boys series. Each novel
follows the adventures of Bob and Jack Golden, brothers from Maine
with curious minds and adventurous hearts. Together, often
alongside their trusted friend Rex Dale, the Golden Boys use their
problem-solving skills and wilderness experience to overcome
danger, discover strange places, and grow into fine young men. In
The Golden Boys Along the River Allagash, Bob and Jack Golden, with
their friend Rex Dale, journey from the comfort of their home in
Maine to discover the lost lake known only as Umsaskis. Along the
way, they recruit their old friend and mentor Kernertok, a Native
American trapper, who joins their expedition along with his trusted
dog Sicum. Voyaging in a canoe and on foot, the adventurous group
makes its way north to find the lake. On their way, they are forced
to stage several daring rescues, as well as to survive a terrifying
encounter with a vicious wildcat. As they near their destination,
and as the Golden Boys and their two friends find they are not all
alone in the deep, dark woods, they need both knowledge and luck
not just to find Umsaskis, but to survive. L.P. Wyman's The Golden
Boys Along the River Allagash is a timeless tale that is both easy
to read and difficult to put down. Published several years before
the debut of The Hardy Boys series, which would dominate young
adult fiction for decades to come, The Golden Boys series is long
overdue for the attention and appreciation it deserves. Although
originally published for an audience of teenage boys, Wyman's
series is perfect for children of all ages and genders, as well as
for adults looking to return to the simple, exciting fiction of
their youth. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally
typeset manuscript, this edition of L.P. Wyman's The Golden Boys
Along the River Allagash is a newly unearthed classic of young
adult literature reimagined for modern readers.
