| Summary |
"Rex Kingdon on Storm Island" by Gordon Braddock is a fiction novel written in the early 20th century. This adventure story follows Rex Kingdon and his friends as they embark on a summer camping trip to an uninhabited island off the Maine coast, only to discover that another group of campers has mistakenly taken over their spot. The narrative unfolds with themes of friendship, sportsmanship, and the excitement of youthful adventure. At the start of the story, Rex and his companions are settling into their campsite on Storm Island when they spot a motorboat approaching, piloted by a constable named Enos Quibb. This unexpected visitor causes tension among the boys, particularly as they learn they might be trespassing on property owned by a lumber company. As their situation unfolds, they engage in light-hearted banter while strategizing how to navigate the guidelines of their camping permit and the potential confrontation with the other campers already on the island. The stage is set for both mischief and camaraderie as Rex leads his friends in dealing with the challenges that summer adventures inevitably bring. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
