A trip up town yesterday, making sure I avoided the Tommy Tank bring our "Ingerland" home rally and all I see are a bunch of ugly tranners in dresses for a Trans Pride Rally. Jesus they have their own Troon bus. Anyway what you'll want is a brand new book to keep your mind off of this.
The Secret of Wildcat Swamp, is the 38th Hardy boys book here and one of the last of the original rewritten stories. It involves the boys going out west to dig up a fossil camel with their science teacher, and falling into a mystery along the way. Like I say its the rewritten edition we have, purloined from school when I left for the last time as we broke up for summer hols. So this is sort of appropriate.
It's a good adventure complete with some differences between the two books. The original scans to 25 chapters and extends out the boys riding the rails and meeting a circus strongman that is gone from the rewrite. Also a weird tale about Adam and Eve is also cut from this (something about them being giants) to save space.
Anyway you can get the original and the remake here. and here.
