Summary

"Boy Scouts in Southern Waters; Or, Spaniard's Treasure Chest" by G. Harvey Ralphson, is an early 1900s adventure about four Boy Scouts from Chicago who find themselves in a whirlwind treasure hunt on the Gulf of Mexico. As the Beaver Patrol bravely steers their motorboat, the Fortuna, through dense fog and unpredictable seas, their playful journey takes a serious turn when a collision leads them to rescue a mysterious man named Carlos. The boys, Jack, Harry, Tom, and Arnold, quickly discover they are caught up in a mystery; one filled with dangerous challenges, and a hidden Spanish treasure, that will test their scouting skills and their courage.

About the Author

According to the Los Angeles Times and the New York Times, several of the books credited to Ralphson may have been written by J. Frank Honeywell. The best-known works credited to Ralphson were the "Boy Scout" series of adventures. Several sources have erroneously reported that he was a real person.
