Summary "The Motor Boys Under the Sea; or, From Airship to Submarine" by Clarence Young is a juvenile adventure novel written in the early 20th century. It follows a group of adventurous boys, known as the "Motor Boys," particularly Jerry Hopkins, Ned Slade, and Bob Baker, as they embark on an exciting journey that spans both air and water. These characters are equipped with a motorship named the "Comet" and set out to investigate a mysterious creature in the water, plunging them into a series of thrilling and perilous situations. The opening of the story finds the boys piloting their airship over Massachusetts Bay when they spot a strange creature that initially appears to be a whale but is later revealed to be a submarine. As they attempt to investigate this intriguing sight, their motorship encounters a malfunction that sends them spiraling toward the sea. Meanwhile, the narrative introduces the boys' backgrounds and highlights their previous adventures, setting the stage for their current quest. As they navigate the challenges of both their craft and the mystery unfolding beneath them, the boys are drawn into an adventure involving a sunken ship, suspense, and the thrill of the unknown, showcasing the excitement of discovery and camaraderie.
