About This Book

A group of country boys in a river town spend a season in episodic adventures that mix river hazards, outdoor sports, and small‑town events. Episodes range from a dramatic spring flood and a lumber fire to camping, fishing, encounters with wildlife and local lore, a county fair and parade, schoolboy pranks and skirmishes with a bully, skating, and personal losses that prompt change. The narrative is structured as a series of self-contained episodes blending action, humor, and coming-of-age moments as the boys test their courage, loyalties, and resourcefulness while the river and community shape their experiences.
