Reviews and Endorsements

“The mystery and the adventure were a lot of fun, but for my money, the best parts were the historical discussions and tidbits sprinkled throughout the book. . . . It’s good. It’s clean. It’s fun. . . . Our heroes are solving a mystery downstream of those facts, and they have to stick to them if they’re going to find the treasure.”
—The Federalist

“Andrew M. Dare wants to renew popular culture by directly renewing its seedbed, literature, with stories that will inspire young men to prepare their minds, souls, talents, and imaginations to dream big and achieve big. That’s why he has written a new series of novels for teenage boys who crave adventure and knowledge, learning technical skills and unraveling historical mysteries. Call them Hardy Boys for the Twenty-First Century.”
—RealClearBooks.com

“If I’d read it when I was 13 years old, I would have thought it’s one of the greatest books ever written. . . . Ben, Porter, and Latch are fine protagonists, and the story moves along at a fast pace through a well-constructed historical mystery. . . . [The reader gets] a mixture of educational stuff with action, mystery, a little romance (that angle is handled quite well), and a little humor.”
—James Reasoner, Rough Edges

“American Treasure Hunters continues to deliver exactly what it promised in Book 1: competent, ambitious young men having old-fashioned adventures while learning real American history. . . . It’s Hardy Boys with modern tech, surfing, football, and podcasts, aimed squarely at boys who want to read about other boys doing cool, heroic stuff.”
—Upstream Reviews
