Edward Stratemeyer
A novel written in the early 20th century. The story is part of the ''Dave Porter Series,'' which follows the adventures of a spirited young boy named Dave Porter, who is now returning to Oak Hall boarding school for another term. Alongside his friends Roger, Phil, and others, Dave finds himself embroiled in various escapades, including the peculiar mystery of a supposed ''wild man'' haunting the woods near the school. The opening of the book presents a sense of excitement and camaraderie among the characters as they prepare to return to school. Dave and his friends discuss the rumors surrounding the wild man and his mischievous antics—such as scaring younger students and stealing food—and express their eagerness to investigate. Amidst this, hints of rivalry with another student, Nat Poole, indicate that challenges and conflicts lie ahead for Dave. The beginning effectively sets the stage for a narrative filled with adventure, mystery, and the dynamics of school life, appealing to readers who enjoy wholesome, youthful tales with elements of intrigue and friendship.
