Large letters and distinctive illustrations by Karel Jerie allow you to follow the thrilling plot step-by-step. Mirek Dušín and his companions are as brave as ever and ready to stand up to injustice – which makes them heroes that today's children will also love. Let yourself be carried away by the magic of these timeless stories.
Jaroslav Foglar
Writer, editor-in-chief of the magazines Mladý hlasatel, Junák, and Vpřed, a prominent methodologist, and the long-serving scout leader of the 2nd Prague Troop. He offered his experience, ideas, and programme tips to others through magazines and later through books that blurred the line between story and methodological manual, such as Kronika Ztracené stopy (The Lost Track Chronicle) and Náš oddíl (Our Troop). His first short story, Vítězství (Victory), was published in Skaut Junák back in December 1923. Ten years later, he serialised the novel Boj o první místo (The Fight for First Place) in the same magazine. This was quickly followed by the books Hoši od Bobří řeky (The Boys from the Beaver River), Přístav volá (The Port Is Calling), and two dozen others. Along with many short stories and comics, led by the Rapid Arrows, these became essential reading for several generations of young people. His legacy, including copyrights, is managed by the Jaroslav Foglar Scout Foundation.
