About This Book

The narrative follows a resourceful motor enthusiast and his small band of friends as they mount an aerial and overland quest to help an ailing man by bringing back his estranged son. Their mission mixes mechanical ingenuity and daring travel in an early flying machine with confrontations against a scheming antagonist, trackers and unruly ranch hands; setbacks include dangerous tests, close escapes, and clever ruses. Episodes alternate technical repair and action-packed pursuit, and the central thread ties mechanical adventure to acts of compassion and redemption as the group uses skill, loyalty and quick thinking to resolve the mystery and restore friendship.
