About this book
The Boy Scouts on Belgian Battlefields is a book by John Henry Goldfrap. The contents list names chapters called Antwerp, on the Scheldt, The Aerial Map-maker, Leaving for the Front and The Day of the Boy Scout, among others.
The text says Rob and his two chums landed from England, after crossing on a small steamer, and found the city choked with fugitives and Belgian soldiers. The text says the natives' use of sturdy-looking dogs, harnessed in small carts and trained to do their duty in order to earn their keep, was perhaps the most interesting thing that held the boys' attention. A character named Merritt remarks that they use dogs for nearly everything. The group soon finds it has arrived at another of those frequent little Belgian hamlets where, in the past, thrift had held sway, but which were rapidly becoming demoralized under the pressure of the war fever.
