About This Book

A group of Camp Fire Girls travel across Europe with their families, encountering new customs, admirers, and unexpected incidents. Esther confronts stage fright while friends and relatives press her toward a public singing career; Betty attracts attention and manages rival suitors; Dick and companions struggle with jealousy and protective instincts. The plot alternates sightseeing, social life at a boarding pension, and a tense adventure involving a strange disappearance and a subsequent search that leads to a rescue. Episodes culminate in a debut performance that tests loyalties and courage. Themes include friendship, mutual support, cultural exchange, self-confidence, and the practical challenges of growing toward independence.

"Beneath the quiet sentinel stars, we now rest.
May we arise to greet the new day, give it our best.
Good-night, good-night, God over all."

The next volume in the Camp Fire Series shall be known as "The Camp Fire Girls' Careers." The group of girls who first came together to spend a summer as a Camp Fire Club in the woods are now grown up and life has, of course, altered and widened for all of them. The question now is, What will each girl do to make her future happy and successful? Will she marry well or ill, or will she choose to follow some career in which marriage has no part? Although the fifth volume is to deal with the original number of heroines, it will be more largely devoted to the most brilliant and erratic of the twelve Camp Fire Girls, Polly O'Neill.
