The Motor Boys Overland; Or, A Long Trip for Fun and Fortune

Three adventurous teens—Bob, Ned, Jerry, and their quick‑talking friend Andy—have just won a gleaming touring car in a local race. Their skill behind the wheel is matched only by their camaraderie, and they spend the first chapters testing the vehicle’s speed, handling mishaps with humor, and reveling in the thrill of the open road. The boys’ love of machines and daring antics set the stage for a journey that promises more than just a joyride.

When the boys learn of an old miner’s tale about a hidden gold vein deep in the western mountains, they decide to turn their new automobile into a vehicle for adventure. Together they set out on a long overland trek, eager to locate the lost mine while unaware that word of the treasure has already reached dangerous rivals. Their expedition quickly becomes a race against time and foes, blending high‑speed road excitement with the promise of untold riches.
