Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Search for the Spy, the Adventures of an American Boy, at the Outbreak of the War
A man fifty years of age said to the writer not long ago that if it had been in his power to select his time to live he would have chosen the half century which had fallen to him. Certainly the world has never seen more momentous deeds than those which the year 1914 has witnessed. Per haps it never will see the like again.
American boys are deeply interested in the war in Europe, because not only is it a gigantic strug gle, but their own future will be largely in?uenced by the outcome. The fear of spies in London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Petrograd and in other cities has been one of the early and pronounced facts.
