Description

The Fight of the Boys details a vicious battle between the "East Siders" and "West Siders," using weapon such as "clubs, canons, wooden spears, wooden sords, and bow guns" to battle each other. There is a significant escalation in violence and weaponry compared to the battle scenes in other stories, but it all ends well since the boys are simply fighting for pride, and once the fighting ends "they are almost as good friends as before."
