Summary "Westy Martin in the Yellowstone" by Percy Keese Fitzhugh is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a young Boy Scout named Westy Martin and his companions, Warde Hollister and Ed Carlyle, as they embark on a journey to Yellowstone National Park. Throughout their travels, the boys encounter various challenges, including their humorous banter with a clever stranger named Mr. Madison C. Wilde, who casts doubt on the seriousness of their scouting skills and alludes to the dangers of the wild. At the start of the book, Westy and his friends are enjoying a train ride filled with playful exchanges with Mr. Wilde, who seems to downplay their scouting abilities while planting seeds of adventure and trepidation about the realities of the wilderness they are approaching. The narrative quickly shifts as Westy finds himself annoyed by Wilde's comments, stirring a desire in him to prove his worth as a scout. Just after arriving in a remote area, the boys become stranded, separated from their train with no provisions, and must bravely navigate the wild landscape. Facing both physical challenges and the temptation to give in to fear, Westy grapples with his identity as a scout and the importance of being prepared, all while building up to a significant adventure that tests his courage and ingenuity.
