Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Motor Boys in Mexico; Or, The Secret of the Buried City" by Clarence Young is a fictional adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows three boys—Ned, Bob, and Jerry—who embark on a journey from Arizona to Mexico after learning about a buried city rumored to hold great treasures. Their journey is filled with encounters both amusing and perilous as they deal with old enemies and new challenges along the way. At the start of the narrative, the boys are living in a mining camp in Arizona when a familiar figure, Professor Uriah Snodgrass, gets himself trapped in an abandoned mine shaft while collecting specimens. After rescuing the professor, he reveals the tale of a buried city in Mexico, igniting their curiosity. The boys decide to make the trip in their automobile, despite the looming threat of Noddy Nixon, a former nemesis, who they discover may also be heading to Mexico. The opening chapters set the tone for a mix of adventure and humor, foreshadowing the various challenges they will encounter on their quest.
