Summary "The Fort in the Wilderness: or, The Soldier Boys of the Indian Trails" by Edward Stratemeyer is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book is part of the "Colonial Series" and follows the adventures of young soldiers, particularly focusing on Dave and his cousin Rodney Morris, as they navigate the challenges posed by the Indian uprisings and colonial warfare during the period following the French and Indian War. At the start of the narrative, the young Morris cousins are out hunting in the Virginia wilderness, highlighting themes of survival and bravery. They engage in a successful deer hunt but are soon drawn into the stirring atmosphere of danger as they pursue a bear and ultimately face the perils associated with the ongoing conflict with the Indians, particularly led by the crafty chief Pontiac. The opening portions set the stage for action-packed adventures intertwined with historical details, showcasing the characters' relationships and the surrounding wilderness fraught with tension and warfare.
