In "The Boy Patrol on Guard," Edward Sylvester Ellis crafts an engaging narrative that immerses readers in the adventures of a group of brave young boys who unite to maintain law and order in their community. Employing a straightforward yet vibrant literary style, Ellis weaves themes of friendship, duty, and courage throughout the story, reflecting the social values of late 19th-century America.

Edward Sylvester Ellis, a prolific author and educator, was deeply influenced by his own formative experiences in a rapidly evolving society. Growing up in a frontier region, Ellis'Äôs fascination with adventure and the moral dilemmas faced by young people during his time inspired him to pen this narrative. Furthermore, his dedication to fostering a love for reading among youth is evident in his numerous works that celebrate the virtues of diligence and integrity, making him a pivotal figure in American children's literature. "The Boy Patrol on Guard" is a compelling read for adolescents and adults alike, offering a nostalgic glimpse into the challenges and triumphs of youth.

    Renowned mythologist Bernard Evslin’s retelling of the perilous adventure of Jason and the Argonauts  “This story begins very soon after the world began, when great raw things called monsters roamed the unfinished places eating whatever they could catch.” So says Ekion, son of the god Hermes, as he relates the tale of the treacherous crusade of Jason and the Argonauts. When Jason, a prince with the gift of healing, is assigned a quest to obtain the golden fleece of the winged ram—which, once obtained, will set Jason upon his rightful throne as king—a fantastic adventure begins. In the vein of classic storytelling, mythologist Bernard Evslin offers his own masterful recasting of the famous tale of Jason, Medea, and the Argonauts, and follows the hero’s journey to its startling and tragic conclusion.
