Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Castlemon, Harry (pseudonym of Charles Austin Fosdick, 1842-1915): THE BOY TRAPPER. Chicago: Donahue, n. d. [a gift inscription dated Christmas 1915 is probably close to the edition's year, of an 1878 title]. A bit worn but attractive pictorial binding depicting a Boy Scout. Evidence of a library card pocket having been removed but no other indications of it having been in any but a private library, but call it a near high end reading copy just in case. Besides the novel -- a wilderness hunting adventure plus hidden treasure -- there is also a short story at the rear, "The Perry Rubber Works," set in Iowa, which I doubt is by Castlemon, but it is a supernatural mystery. It replaces "A Balloon Hoax" which Donahue appended to their edition of The Boy Trapper in 1912.…

The "Frank" juvenile detective and travel-adventure series was a Victorian precursor to the Hardy Boys, and vastly superior to the Hardy Boys. Being set in the wake of the fall of Vicksburg adds tremendous flavor and American Civil War interest.…
