Summary "The Rover Boys in the Air; Or, From College Campus to the Clouds" by Arthur M. Winfield is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the Rover boys—Dick, Tom, and Sam—as they navigate adventures involving a biplane they purchased, exploring themes of friendship, bravery, and youthful curiosity. The narrative emphasizes their enthusiasm for aviation and the challenges they face as they learn to harness this new technology. At the start of the book, the Rover boys, now young adults and college students, prepare to take flight in their newly acquired biplane, named the "Dartaway". Their excitement quickly turns to chaos when a mishap causes the machine to take off without a pilot, resulting in Dick getting injured as he tries to control the runaway aircraft. The opening sets the stage for an adventurous tale where the boys not only contend with the ups and downs of learning to fly but also tangled encounters with old enemies like Tad Sobber and Josiah Crabtree, hinting at further excitement and conflicts ahead in their journey.
