Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Putnam Hall Champions; or, Bound to Win Out" by Edward Stratemeyer is a novel written in the early 20th century. This story belongs to the "Putnam Hall Series," which recounts the adventures of young cadets at Putnam Hall, a military academy located on the shores of Cayuga Lake. The narrative focuses on a group of boys, particularly Jack Ruddy, as they engage in sports, rivalries, and challenges, including a sailing race that ignites tensions with their counterparts from Pornell Academy. The opening portion of the book sets the stage for a sailing competition between the cadets from Putnam Hall and their rivals from Pornell Academy. Jack Ruddy and his friends, including the mischievous Pepper Ditmore, are excited to test their newly acquired sloop, the "Alice," against the "Ajax," owned by one Fred Century. As the race begins, it quickly becomes competitive, with the boys bantering and showcasing their camaraderie. However, the rivalry heats up when a sudden squall capsizes the Pornell boat, leading Jack and his friends to rescue the competitors, despite the initial tension. This dramatic start introduces the school environment, highlights the themes of competition and friendship, and hints at further adventures to come within the academy setting.
