"Stormy Voyage" by Roger Barlow is a juvenile adventure novel written in the mid-20th century. The book follows the journey of two teenagers, Sandy Steele and Jerry James, as they embark on a summer trip to Minnesota, expecting to work in iron ore mines due to Sandy's father's government job. However, the story takes unexpected turns as they grapple with challenges at sea and uncover potential danger related to their father's work. At the start of the story, Sandy Steele is excited to learn that he and his friend Jerry will be heading to Minnesota instead of Alaska, where they had originally planned to spend their summer. Sandy's father, a government geologist, explains the significance of the Mesabi Range’s iron ore mines, which are dwindling in high-grade deposits. The boys enthusiastically embark on their road trip, but upon arriving, they discover that jobs at the mines are scarce. This disappointment is soon overshadowed by their chance encounter with John Kennedy, whose life Sandy saves, leading to unexpected opportunities aboard the "James Kennedy" and setting the stage for thrilling adventures ahead. As they navigate the challenges of working on the ship, they face a drunken mate's intimidation, a fire outbreak in the galley, and the dangers of the Great Lakes, all while trying to prove themselves and uphold their values of friendship and bravery.
