"Two American Boys with the Dardanelles Battle Fleet" by Major Sherman Crockett is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows two young American cousins, Amos Turner and Jack Maxfield, as they embark on a perilous journey through the Dardanelles during World War I, seeking to find Amos's missing brother, Frank, who is an aviator serving with the Allies. The opening of the novel introduces the boys aboard a Greek powerboat as they navigate the tumultuous waters of the Ægean Sea. They are well aware of the historical significance of their location, laden with tales of ancient conflicts and contemporary battles between Allied forces and the Turks. As they approach their destination, the boys encounter suspicions about the crew's intentions, leading them to uncover that they are transporting ammunition and weapons to the Turks, prompting plans for a daring intervention. This sets the stage for their adventure, steeped in danger and the urgency of their quest. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
