Produktbeschreibung
The Radio Boys on the Mexican Border by Gerald Breckenridge is an exciting adventure novel that follows the thrilling exploits of a group of young radio enthusiasts. Set against the backdrop of the tumultuous Mexican border, this story combines elements of mystery, adventure, and the fascinating world of early radio technology. The protagonists of the story are three close friends-Jack Hampton, Frank Merrick, and Bob Temple-who share a deep passion for radio technology. The boys are known for their ingenuity and technical skills, often working on various radio projects together. Their interest in radio not only brings them closer as friends but also leads them into a series of unexpected and dangerous adventures. The story begins with the boys receiving an intriguing message over their radio set, which hints at a mysterious and urgent situation near the Mexican border. Intrigued by the cryptic message and driven by their sense of adventure, the Radio Boys decide to investigate. They set out on a journey to the border, equipped with their portable radio equipment, ready to uncover the truth behind the distress call. As they arrive at the border, they find themselves in the midst of a tense and volatile situation. The area is rife with unrest due to the ongoing conflicts between local factions and the presence of bandits who exploit the chaos. The boys quickly realize that their radio skills will be crucial in navigating this dangerous environment and assisting those in need. During their adventure, the Radio Boys meet several key characters who play significant roles in their quest. Among them is Captain Wilkes, a stern but fair border patrol officer who recognizes the boys' potential and enlists their help in maintaining communication across the troubled region. Another important character is Maria, a brave and resourceful local girl who provides the boys with valuable insights and assistance. The boys' radio expertise becomes their greatest asset as they work to establish reliable communication links in the area. They set up radio stations, repair broken equipment, and use their knowledge to intercept and decode important messages. Their efforts prove invaluable in coordinating the movements of the border patrol and providing vital information to those fighting for stability in the region. As the story progresses, the boys uncover a sinister plot orchestrated by a group of smugglers who are exploiting the border chaos for their gain. The smugglers are involved in a range of illegal activities, from arms dealing to human trafficking, and they will stop at nothing to protect their operations. The Radio Boys find themselves in grave danger as they gather evidence and work to expose the smugglers' nefarious plans. The climax of the novel is a gripping sequence of events where the boys, with the help of their newfound allies, orchestrate a daring plan to thwart the smugglers. Using their radio skills, they manage to send a critical message that alerts the authorities and leads to a coordinated effort to apprehend the criminals. The boys' bravery and quick thinking are instrumental in bringing the smugglers to justice and restoring some measure of peace to the border area. The Radio Boys emerge from their adventure not only as heroes but also as more mature and experienced individuals. Their journey teaches them valuable lessons about courage, responsibility, and the power of technology to make a difference in the world. The novel leaves readers with a sense of admiration for the boys' achievements and an appreciation for the exciting possibilities that lie at the intersection of technology and adventure.
Autorenporträt
"Strange that you boys should be talking about the 'Lost Expedition.'" "Oh, hello, Dad. Why strange?" "Because I have just come from a conference with a man who knows all there is to know about it. And he was telling me--." Mr. Hampton advanced from the doorway into the sitting room, and looked at the faces of the three boys in turn. They were his son, Jack, and the latter's chums, Bob Temple and Frank Merrick, who together had gone through many adventures related in other books of "The Radio Boys" series. It was the sitting room of a suite in a Seattle hotel. Here the four, arriving from South America, after finding and losing "The Enchanted City of the Incas" as told of in "The Radio Boys Search for the Incas' Treasure," were ensconced on their way to their Long Island homes.
