Summary "Motor Boat Boys Among the Florida Keys; Or, The Struggle for the Leadership" by Louis Arundel is a fictional adventure story likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows a group of boys who embark on a thrilling journey through the Florida Keys in their motorboats, engaged in a friendly rivalry centered on fishing prowess. The main characters include Nick Longfellow, a chubby boy eager to prove himself against his rival Jimmy Brannigan, as well as their companions Jack Stormways, George Rollins, and others who contribute to the group dynamic and the unfolding adventures. The opening of the story sets the scene with Nick preparing for a fishing competition against Jimmy, who has already caught a channel bass and generated some playful rivalry between the two. As Nick struggles with his cumbersome boat, the reader is introduced to the group of friends and their distinctive personalities. The narrative quickly escalates into excitement as Nick unexpectedly hooks a shark, leading to chaotic moments with his friends attempting to rescue him amid their ongoing competition. This set-up establishes the tone of camaraderie and adventure, making it clear that the boys' trip is sure to be filled with fun, challenges, and perhaps a touch of danger.
