About the author

Levi Worthington Green was an American author active in the early 1900s, known for juvenile adventure fiction. His best-known books include The Boy Fugitives in Mexico and its sequel, Two American Boys in the War Zone, a novel published in 1915 and set against the upheaval of World War I in Russia.

His fiction centers on fast-moving travel, danger, and resourceful young protagonists. Modern readers may notice that these stories reflect the attitudes and assumptions of the time in which they were written, which can make them interesting both as adventures and as historical artifacts.

Reliable biographical details about Green are limited in the sources I could confirm, so this overview focuses on his published work rather than uncertain personal facts.
