The Boy Chums in the Florida Jungle
Wilmer M. Ely
Lu par Bellona Times





Late entry in the Boy Chums series set in WWI-era Florida focuses on four working-class adventurers: young adults Charley & Walter, manservant Chris, and man of the world, Captain Westfield. Has the distinction of Chris being black; he's a stereotype for sure but is pretty much treated as an equal, like a grown-up Buckwheat -- with a dry sense of humor -- from the Our Gang comedies.. - Summary by BellonaTimes (6 hr 12 min)

Critiques
Old Florida

I enjoy this kind of tale. I'm adventure seen through boy's eyes and a lot of circumstances that are solved in a boys matter. Just down to earth storytelling and some good Florida research. I highly recommend it to people who want to have a picture drawn in their mind's eye of what Florida was like before all the attractions.
