"The Boy Scouts of the Naval Reserve" by Robert Shaler is a work of juvenile fiction likely written in the early 20th century. This installment in the Boy Scouts series follows a group of boys, particularly focusing on the patrol leader Hugh Hardin, as they partake in various adventures that emphasize teamwork, bravery, and outdoor skills.

The opening of the book sets the stage for a thrilling adventure, featuring Hugh and his fellow scouts, Arthur and Billy, as they enjoy a sunny day out. After meeting up, they decide to explore Cedar Hill, where Arthur has set up a wireless outfit that he wants to test. Their adventure quickly takes an unexpected turn when Billy claims he has encountered a bear, sending the boys into a mix of humor and fear. As they pursue the truth of Billy's claim, they discover the reality of a bear tied to a tree, leading them to decide to help it and uncover the bear’s owner—who has come to harm.
