"The Radio Boys on the Mexican Border" by Gerald Breckenridge is a work of children's fiction written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around three boys—Jack Hampton, Frank Merrick, and Bob Temple—who share a keen interest in radio technology and adventure. Set against the backdrop of a tumultuous time in North American history, the narrative follows their thrilling escapades as they navigate challenges arising from Jack's father's kidnapping and a web of intrigue involving bandits and potential conflict between the United States and Mexico. At the start of the tale, the boys are eagerly anticipating radio communication with their friend Jack, who is in New Mexico with his father engaged in oil operations. As they attempt to make contact, they suddenly hear Jack's cry for help over the radio, accompanied by static and a alarming crash. This moment sets off a chain of events revealing that Jack's father has been abducted by Mexican bandits, thrusting the boys into an adventure filled with danger and conspiracies. Determined to rescue Jack's father, they plan a flight to New Mexico, but they soon realize that a traitor may be within their ranks, heightening the stakes as they frantically seek answers and prepare for action.
