The Boy Fortune Hunters in Egypt

The third book in ‘The Boy Fortune Hunter’ series by prolific author L. Frank Baum follows our plucky hero Sam Steele to Egypt. Little does Sam know when he rescues young Joe Herring from a sinking dinghy that the pair are in for a wild adventure on the other side of the world. The duo are joined by the spoilt Archie Ackley as they sail to Egypt, where legend has it that the lost treasure of Karnak has been hidden in the desert. The boys must be on their guard as their quest to find the treasure takes them into increasing peril.

Lyman Frank Baum (1856 – 1919) was a prolific and well-known American writer. He is best known for his famous series of modern fairy tales set in the imaginary land of Oz. The first of the books, ‘The Wonderful Wizard of Oz’ is widely considered to be the first true American fairy tale and was the basis for the hugely popular 1939 classic musical ‘The Wizard of Oz’ starring Judy Garland. Born and raised in New York, Baum held a range of jobs including as a poultry farmer, clerk, and storekeeper before pursuing his talent for writing at the age of 41. He wrote 14 novels in the Oz series, as well as over 40 other novels and over 80 short stories. He died in California in 1919.
