The Golden Boys Rescued by the Radio (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. While fishing on a
lake near their family cabin in the woods of northern Maine,
brothers Bob and Jack Golden encounter a strange man with an
accent. Curious-and a little worried-at first, the boys return to
the peace of the great outdoors for a few more hours. That night,
however, a man tries to break into their cabin, and after scaring
him off with a gun the brothers wait until morning before making
their way home to Skowhegan. There to meet them on their arrival is
revenue officer Jim Carson, who is desperate for help on a case
involving bootleggers from Canada. Eager to get to the bottom of
the previous night's mystery, as well as to put their newly
invented radio to the test, the Golden Boys agree to help Jim. The
ensuing adventure, which involves a vanishing cabin, daring
rescues, and abundant danger, the Golden Boys will need their wits
about them, as well as to use every skill they can muster. With its
brilliant blend of detective and adventure fiction, L.P. Wyman's
The Golden Boys Rescued by the Radio is an absolute thrill ride
from start to finish. L.P. Wyman's The Golden Boys Rescued by the
Radio is the work of an inventive 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 Rescued by
the Radio is a newly unearthed classic of young adult literature
reimagined for modern readers.
