PREFACE
This is not a boys’ “book of adventure”but an imaginary chronicle based upon thesetting of an actual cruise. It is believedthat there are Sea Scouts who will recognizefamiliar surroundings and will recall theideas which are associated with them; andit is hoped that Land Scouts will feel, onthe Bright Wing, the same spirit that theyassociate with the inspiration of the campfire.
