Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"The Rover Boys in Alaska; or, Lost in the Fields of Ice" by Edward Stratemeyer is a novel written in the early 20th century. This adventurous tale follows the Rover brothers—Tom, Sam, and Dick—on a journey that leads them to Alaska in search of Tom, who mysteriously disappears while at college. The book promises a blend of excitement, camaraderie, and the challenges faced by the boys as they navigate through icy fields and perilous situations. At the start of the story, Tom and Sam Rover are settling back into college life after a period of adventures. Tom, who has been recovering from an injury to his head, is eager for fun and mischief, yet his erratic behavior raises concerns for Sam. As the opening chapter unfolds, Tom's playful pranks become increasingly troubling, leading to a frightening incident where his joke almost puts two classmates in danger. This foreshadows the need for Tom's eventual journey to Alaska, setting the stage for a compelling narrative of brotherly loyalty and the trials that await the Rover boys in their quest to rescue Tom and uncover the mystery behind his disappearance.
