Percy Keese Fitzhugh (1876-1950) was an American author. His first
known work, The Goldenrod Story Book was published in 1906. The
bulk of his work, having a Boy Scouting theme, revolves around the
fictional town of Bridgeboro, New Jersey. Characters included Tom
Slade, Pee-wee Harris, Roy Blakely, and Westy Martin. Fitzhugh's
Scouting based books were very popular with children and adults.
His characters became so real to his readers that it was not
uncommon for Percy to receive fan mail addressed to the characters
themselves. In the 1930's, as the popularity of Fitzhugh's Scouting
stories began to wane, he began writing the Hal Keen Mystery Series
(10 titles) under the pseudonym Hugh Lloyd. They were followed by
another mystery series - Skippy Dare - (3 titles). Neither of these
series achieved the popularity of his earlier Boy Scout work.
