| Summary | "The Boys of Crawford's Basin" by Sidford F. Hamp is a historical adventure novel set in the late 19th century. The narrative follows the lives of two boys, Phil and Joe, as they navigate ranch life and face various challenges in the rugged landscape of early Colorado. Through their adventures, they encounter local wildlife, engage in prospecting, and develop their character in a frontier environment. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Phil and Joe as they wake to the alarming news that Big Reuben, a notorious grizzly bear, is raiding their pig-pen. The boys quickly join their father in an adventure to ward off the bear, showcasing their bravery and quick thinking. The opening chapters establish the friendly camaraderie between Phil and Joe, hinting at their teamwork and resilience as they deal with threats to their ranch. Additionally, we learn about their aspirations and everyday life, which includes work on the ranch and interactions with their communities, setting the stage for further adventures throughout their journey.
