The Golden Boys on the River Drive (1923) is an adventure novel by
L.P. Wyman and one of seven books in his vastly underrated-and
relatively unknown-Golden Boys series. Each novel follows the
adventures of Bob and Jack Golden, brothers from Maine with curious
minds and adventurous hearts. Together, often alongside their
trusted friend Rex Dale, the Golden Boys use their problem-solving
skills and wilderness experience to overcome danger, discover
strange places, and grow into fine young men. Brothers Bob and Jack
Golden are spending their break from military school deep in the
Maine woods, at the lumber camp owned by their father. When they
learn that their friend Rex Dale has gone missing on a fishing
trip, their days of roaming the idyllic wilderness come to an end.
Together the Golden Boys journey to Presque Isle, where they learn
Rex is being held for ransom. As they struggle to rescue him, they
have no clue as to what is unfolding back at the lumber camp. Big
Ben Donahue, a rival logger, has hatched a conspiracy to steal
their father's lumber. If they have any hope of returning to school
in Pennsylvania on time, the Golden Boys will need all of their
skills as outdoorsmen-and some luck, as well. As The Golden Boys on
the River Drive unfolds, and as one trial follows the other, no
reader will want the excitement to end. With its brilliant blend of
detective and adventure fiction, Wyman's novel is an absolute
thrill ride from start to finish. L.P. Wyman's The Golden Boys on
the River Drive is the work of a talented author, and is both easy
to read and difficult to put down. Published several years before
the debut of The Hardy Boys series, which would dominate young
adult fiction for decades to come, The Golden Boys series is long
overdue for the attention and appreciation it deserves. Although
originally published for an audience of teenage boys, Wyman's
series is perfect for children of all ages and genders, as well as
for adults looking to return to the simple, exciting fiction of
their youth. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally
typeset manuscript, this edition of L.P. Wyman's The Golden Boys on
the River Drive is a newly unearthed classic of young adult
literature reimagined for modern readers.
