Reviews

[Joe Stevens · Rating 2 out of 5]

While the first book in the series was fairly interesting, especially if you have a background in radio as I do, this second volume was a disappointment. While there are some radio elements and a storm at sea that help the book avoid a single star, the lion's share of the novel tells of the pedestrian tourist adventures of school boys at the coast and dealings with their school rivals. Tales of crabbing, surf boarding, motor boating and the like aren't overly interesting a 100 years on.

Like the first book there is a slim mystery, but it mostly involves fighting with a man who they have no proof is guilty of anything. This part feels like the Hardy Boys randomly assaulting stuttering loafers around Bayport. Franklin W Dixon was certainly the best of the pseudonymous ghost authors in the Stratemeyer Syndicate. The Syndicate was extremely lucky to get Leslie McFarlane to ghost on the Hardy Boys, if you want proof read this book.

A more innocent time

With today's technology...kids have it too easy. This was book turns a group of young men their dreams into reality with great explores of a burgeoning medium called the wireless. A fun book to read.

Really good! Adventure and science mixed together in the 1920s!
