| Summary | "The Iron Boys on the Ore Boats; or, Roughing It on the Great Lakes" by James R. Mears is an adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows two young friends, Steve Rush and Bob Jarvis, as they embark on a new challenge working as seamen on the Great Lakes after proving themselves in the mining industry. The pack of adventures and dangers they face at sea encapsulates their spirit of exploration and ambition. At the start of the story, Steve and Bob are summoned to the office of the president of their mining company, where they learn they will be working on the ship "Wanderer." However, their journey takes an unexpected turn when they accidentally fall into the ship's hold while exploring the docks. Despite the initial mishap, the boys quickly adapt to their surroundings, demonstrating their resilience and resourcefulness. The opening chapters introduce their transition from miners to sailors as they navigate the challenges aboard the ship, setting the stage for the ensuing perilous adventures on the Great Lakes.
