THE HICKORY RIDGE/VICTORY BOY SCOUTS SERIES
By Alan Douglas

Notes

Titles

Nine volumes of this series, published by the New York Book Co., were repackaged by Donahue with three of G. Harvey Ralphson's "Boy Scouts" series into its "Victory Boy Scouts" series. Publishing info is not complete.

 

At the end of each book, there is a 20-30 page addendum giving information about an aspect of natural history or woodcraft -- in "Campfires of the Wolf Patrol," for example, there is a guide to the common mammals of North America, followed by an introduction to tracking.
