Description: " 'Snug Harbor' is the second volume of 'The Boat-Builder Series.'  Though it contains its fair proportion of story and adventure, there is less of these elements than in its predecessor; though the writer believes there is enough to keep up the interest of his young readers.  Dory Dornwood, the hero of the initial volume of the series, is again presented, and about a quarter of a hundred others; though all of them cannot be heroes.  Like the former volume, the scene is laid on Lake Champlain and its shores."  from Preface, p. 7
