| Summary | "The Motor Boys on Road and River; Or, Racing To Save a Life" by Clarence Young is a work of juvenile fiction written in the early 20th century. This adventure novel centers around a trio of boys—Jerry Hopkins, Ned Slade, and Bob Baker—who often embark on thrilling escapades involving motor vehicles and intrigue. In this particular story, they are embroiled in a mystery regarding the value of land owned by Jerry’s mother and an urgent mission that unfolds as they contend with urgency to save a life. The opening of the book introduces Jerry and his friends reflecting on a local baseball game, hinting at Jerry's absent-mindedness which has recently troubled him. As the boys decide to take a spin in their car, Jerry's erratic driving reveals that something preoccupies his mind. It is soon disclosed that Jerry is concerned over an intriguing offer for a swamp land owned by his mother from the Universal Plaster Company, which he suspects carries hidden motives. The boys plan to investigate the land themselves and uncover a potential mystery involving clay diggers, adding suspense and adventure to their summer escapades. The stage is set for an exhilarating journey as they determine to uncover the truth behind the land's value and the company's intentions. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
