Harry Wilson’s father worries that his son will get into mischief over the long summer, so his uncle suggests letting the boys go on a cruise. Harry and his friends Tom and Joe take a rowboat up the Hudson, camp along the shore, cook, quarrel, dodge steamboats and learn to look after themselves while remaining resolutely moral pirates.
