| "This is a new line of
stories for boys, by the author of the Boy Ranchers series. The Bob Dexter
books are of the character that may be called detective stories, yet they
are without the objectionable features of the impossible characters and
absurd situations that mark so many books in that class. These stories deal
with the up-to-date adventures of a normal, healthy lad who has a great
desire to solve mysteries." -- Cupples and Leon advertisement |

despoiled of its trophies in a strange manner and how, among other things

amateur detective and found not only the mascot, but who had taken it,
makes interesting and exciting reading" -- 1925. Cupples & Leon.

great story." -- 1925. Cupples & Leon.
