Summary "The Banner Boy Scouts Afloat; or, The Secret of Cedar Island" by George A. Warren is a children’s adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of Boy Scouts from the Stanhope Troop, led by Paul Morrison, as they embark on a thrilling expedition that promises excitement and mystery. The opening chapters introduce the camaraderie of the boys, their plans for a boating trip, and hints of intrigue surrounding mysterious boxes that one of the characters, Jack, is guarding. The beginning of the book sets the stage for the adventure to come, focusing on the preparations the boys are making for their trip on the water. As they gather supplies and plan their route, they engage in light-hearted camaraderie, with one of the boys, Bobolink, expressing a deep curiosity about the contents of the boxes that have been left in the care of Jack's father. Tension arises when the boys spot a mysterious figure lurking near their boats at night, which they suspect may be connected to the boxes. As their journey unfolds, the boys face challenges such as navigating tricky waters and managing their supplies, showcasing their resourcefulness and the spirit of adventure that embodies the Boy Scout ethos.
