| Summary | "The Motor Boys Overland; Or, A Long Trip for Fun and Fortune" by Clarence Young is a novel written in the early 20th century. This exciting installment follows a group of adventurous boys—Bob, Ned, Jerry, and their friend Andy—who delve into the world of automobiles. The boys, emboldened by their recent victory in a motorcycle meet and the acquisition of a touring car, decide to embark on a thrilling journey across the American West, ignited by the prospect of adventure and the treasure of a lost gold mine. At the start of the story, the boys take a leisurely drive in their newly-won automobile, sharing playful banter and friendship. Their journey is punctuated by high-energy moments, including an automobile race that highlights their competitive spirit. They soon find themselves intertwined with the tale of Jim Nestor, a miner with knowledge of a precious gold mine, whose misadventures set off a series of dangerous encounters with old foes. The opening chapters establish an atmosphere of youthful exuberance mixed with the thrill of the unknown, setting the stage for the Motor Boys' captivating expedition filled with challenges, rivalries, and excitement beckoning in the horizon.
