(5 Sterne; 5 Bewertungen)

The Editor likes to think that quite a few of the stories found in the Boy Scouts Book of Campfire Stories present companions for the mind of this hardy sort, and hopes, whether boys read or are told these stories, they will prove to be such as exalt and inspire while they thrill and entertain.

When we were young, and had a culture.

Good stories from the past.

(5 Sterne)

Most stories are still fine to listen to but one can be offensive to some people because it was written before the civil rights movement. It portrays blacks as uneducated and uses the word negro once. The rest of the stories are exciting and draws the listeners into the stories. It's just how things were at the time it was published. I did enjoy listening to the old stories
