About This Book
A quartet of boy broncho riders travels in central Mexico, observing suspicious mounted men by the railway and confronting a band of revolutionaries entrenched in an old mine. They scout from high ground, debate motives, and attempt to prevent a train or bullion hold-up while recruiting local allies, including an eccentric entertainer with a monkey. Encounters escalate into raids, captures, and skirmishes around shaft houses and waterworks, and the boys assist military figures in defending vital infrastructure. The narrative emphasizes youthful daring, camaraderie, improvisation, and encounters with local dangers amid borderland unrest.
