Synopsis

In "The Motor Boys on the Atlantic; or, The Mystery of the Lighthouse," Clarence Young crafts an engaging narrative that blends adventure and mystery within the backdrop of early 20th-century maritime exploration. The novel follows a group of daring boys as they embark on a thrilling journey along the Atlantic coast, uncovering secrets surrounding a mysterious lighthouse. Young's vibrant prose and rich descriptive language not only ignite the imagination but also reflect the burgeoning interest in motor technology and exploration prevalent during his time, creating a compelling context that enhances the reader's experience. Clarence Young, known for his contributions to boys' literature, drew from his passion for engineering and his fascination with the burgeoning automotive industry, which informed much of his writing. His characters often embody youthful ingenuity and resourcefulness, reflective of his own belief in the potential of young minds during a transformative era in American history. This blend of adventure, technological curiosity, and moral lessons reflects Young's intent to inspire and educate his readers. I highly recommend "The Motor Boys on the Atlantic" to readers who appreciate a blend of adventure and mystery, especially young readers seeking tales of camaraderie and exploration. This novel not only entertains but also encourages a sense of curiosity about the world, making it a timeless tale relevant to today's adventurous spirit.

    A detailed chronicle of the career of the late 1800s trailblazing investigative reporter, Nellie Bly. A letter to the Editor of The Pittsburgh Dispatch turned into a position of journalist with the paper. She tackled tough societal issues, unheard of from woman in those days. However, the businesses she exposed threatened to pull advertising, so she was moved to cover topics deemed more appropriate for a woman. She ultimately became a freelance journalist and later moved to New York and worked as an investigative reporter for New York World, often going undercover, or as it was called then, being a "stunt reporter". She also reported on her 72-day trip around the world. The biography details her marriage to a business tycoon, her time as President of the company and her ultimate return to journalism. Contextual side stories offer further perspective on key details, locations, and people referenced in Bly's story. Archival photographs, drawings, and paintings are chronologically arranged, adding visual context to her remarkable life and career, as well as the inclusion of further reading and website recommendations, maps, glossary, and index. Content developed for young readers, interest level grades 4-6 (reading level, grade 5).
