Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Four in Camp: A Story of Summer Adventures in the New Hampshire Woods" by Ralph Henry Barbour is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the experiences of a young boy named Nelson Tilford as he arrives at Camp Chicora, where he is introduced to camp life, friendships, and various summer adventures amidst the New Hampshire woods. The book features themes of camaraderie, outdoor activities, and the excitement of youth in a natural setting. At the start of the story, Nelson Tilford arrives at Camp Chicora, grappling with feelings of loneliness and apprehension about fitting in with the other campers. He is warmly welcomed by Mr. Verder, one of the camp councilors, and soon participates in the lively atmosphere of camp life, including meals and campfire gatherings. The narrative sets the stage for his interactions with fellow campers, particularly Tom Ferris and Dan Speede, as they share experiences, play games, and partake in friendly banter. As the boys settle into their routine, including daily duties and activities such as swimming and baseball, the story hints at the spirited adventures and friendships that will develop throughout the summer.
