About This Book

An energetic tale follows a ragged but determined youth who seeks entry to a workshop of young inventors after inheriting a box of plans. He proves himself by helping design and build an electric hydroaeroplane while the team confronts sabotage, stolen plans, mechanical crises, and daring sea and air rescues.
