Synopsis

Gathered from the pages of Wide World magazine, the longest-running true-adventure magazine of the twentieth century,True Adventures for Boys is filled with thrilling tales for all brave boys from 7 to 70 – a fresh-air manly world where the only thing to fear is fear itself, and where big boys don’t cry.

THRILL to incredible-but-true tales of survival such as `I Fell 20,000 Feet’ or `A Fight with a Leopard’

CRINGE at the insanity of `Over Niagara Falls in a Rubber Ball’ and `The Bird Man’s Final Gamble’

MARVEL at `Buried Alive by a Dead Elephant’ and be moved and astonished by the epic misadventure of Maurice Wilson’s 1934 solo assault on Everest – probably the most amazing true story ever told.
