This volume collects the first 8 novels in the original Hardy Boy series, before it was rewritten and dumbed down in the 1950s for a sanitized TV-raised audience. These adventures, first published in the late 1920s, feature rougher, tougher versions of Frank and Joe Hardy, willing to take chances -- and pay the price -- to solve mysteries. So if you think you know these books based on later versions, you're going to be in for a very pleasant surprise: they're better.
