The Rover Boys in the Jungle By Edward Stratemeyer

The third book in "The Rover Boys' Series for Young Americans," one of the most influential juvenile fiction series in American pop culture. These are the adventures of the Rover boys, Dick, Tom, and Sam Rover, the three sons of Anderson Rover, a geological expert and rich mine owner and who is missing in Africa. The Rover Boys was a popular young readers' series created by the Stratemeyer Syndicate, a publishing house which also created THE HARDY BOYS, TOM SWIFT, THE BOBBSEY TWINS, and NANCY DREW. Unlike some of the later series, the ROVER BOYS books were written exclusively by Edward Stratemeyer (writing under the pseudonym Arthur M. Winfield). Stratemeyer wrote some 1300 books selling more than 500 million copies, making him one of the most successful - and most obscure - authors in history.
