Boy Scouts in Mexico, or on Guard With Uncle Sam
G. Harvey Ralphson's classic series of Boy Scout adventure novels, written just as organized scouting took hold in the U.S., on the eve of World War I, brought a patriotic flare to stories that took boys to far-off exotic locales and into situations that sometimes verged on science fiction. In "Boy Scouts in Mexico, or On Guard with Uncle Sam" the scouts find themselves mixed up in robbery, attempted murder, Mexican revolutionaries, and a lost gold mine, as they try to prove the innocence of one of their members. An exciting story from start to finish, "Boy Scouts in Mexico" will interest fans of classic pulp fiction and Boy Scout stories alike!
