My Dear Boys: This volume, "The Rover Boys in the Jungle," is the third story of the "Rover Boys Series," and while a complete tale in itself, forms a companion story to "The Rover Boys at School" and "The Rover Boys on the Ocean," which preceded it. In the former volumes, I told you much of the doings of Dick, tom, and Sam at Putnam Hall and during a remarkable chase on the Atlantic Ocean. In the present story, the scene is shifted form the military academy, where the boys are cadets, to the wilds of Africa, whither the lads and their uncle have gone to look for Anderson Rover, the boys' father, who had disappeared many years before. A remarkable message from the sea causes the party to leave this country, and they journey to Africa, little dreaming of all the stirring adventures which await them in the heart of the Dark Continent. How they battle against their many perils, and what the outcome of their remarkable search is, I will leave for the pages that follow to explain. In conclusion, let me state that I am extremely grateful for the kind favor given the previous volumes of this series, and I sincerely trust that the present tale merits a continuance of your support. Affectionately and sincerely yours, Arthur M. Winfield. November 10, 1899.
