The first of two novels devoted to the doings of the eponymous Carol, Carol of Highland Camp was published in 1927, and is apparently loosely related to author Earl Reed Silvers' trilogy about Barry Browning, begun in 1924 with Barry the Undaunted. The characters of the Barry series attend school at Cranford High, which is where the second book about Carol, Carol of Cranford High is set. In this novel however, there doesn't appear to be any overlap of characters, and I have not yet managed to track down a copy of the sequel. Leaving that aside, this was a fairly standard "reluctant/obnoxious camper is won over by the fun and spirit of the camp" story. It parallels some of Silvers' other books, such as The Spirit of Menlo, which, in a similar way, chronicles the experiences of a reluctant student being won over by the school spirit. Unfortunately, although she turns out to be the right sort in the end, Carol is not as appealing a character as some of Silvers' others, and the story is not as engaging. This was the fifteenth book I have read by this author, and is the one I enjoyed the least. Recommended primarily to Earl Reed Silvers fans (if there are any others out there), and to readers who enjoy vintage girls' fare.… (lisätietoja)
