"The Adventures of Bobby Orde" by Stewart Edward White is a novel written in the early 20th century. This coming-of-age story follows a young boy named Bobby Orde as he navigates childhood adventures, friendships, and the complexities of growing up amidst the backdrop of river life and logging activities. The narrative is rich with details of early 20th-century life, showcasing Bobby’s innocent curiosity and the imaginative world he inhabits. At the start of the book, Bobby Orde is introduced as a vibrant, inquisitive boy, enchanted by the workings of the river and the lumber industry where his father works. His journey begins when he explores his father’s office and the nearby lumber yards, revealing his fascination with the equipment and the bustling life that surrounds him. Bobby’s adventures take him to the booms where logs are collected and sorted, where he experiences the thrill of the water and nature’s wonders. He is accompanied by his dog, Duke, and later befriends a charming girl named Celia, setting the stage for explorations that blur the lines between play, discovery, and early emotional experiences. These formative encounters hint at the deeper themes of friendship and childlike wonder that will unfold throughout the story. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
