About the Book

In Tom Swift And His Electric Runabout Or The Speediest Car on the Road, a young inventor embarks on an ambitious project to build a groundbreaking electric car that could win a government-sponsored prize for the fastest automobile. Driven by a desire to outperform his rival, he faces numerous challenges, both in the engineering of his car and in dealing with the competition. At the start of the story, the inventor discusses his plans with his father, highlighting the determination that fuels his efforts. Though lacking a car, he is committed to creating one using an innovative new storage battery. As the adventure unfolds, the protagonist faces a setback when a group of local boys, including his rival, plot to capture him for a prank. These early challenges blend excitement, innovation, and rivalry, setting the stage for a high-speed race against time. Throughout the journey, the protagonist not only navigates the complexities of invention but also confronts obstacles presented by those who wish to see him fail. As he overcomes each setback, the story emphasizes persistence, ingenuity, and the thrill of innovation in the face of competition.

About the Author :
Victor Appleton was a pen name used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate, a publishing organization that created popular children's book series in the early 20th century. The name was primarily associated with the Tom Swift series, which was published from 1910 to 1941 and became iconic for its portrayal of a young, inventive protagonist. The Tom Swift series followed the adventures of Tom, a resourceful and daring young inventor, who used his innovative creations to tackle challenges, often involving cutting-edge technology and thrilling escapades. In addition to the Tom Swift books, Victor Appleton was also used for several other series, including the Motion Picture Chums (1913-1916), Moving Picture Boys (1913-1922), and Movie Boys (1926-1927), which catered to the growing popularity of the film industry. These series focused on the adventures of young characters involved in the world of cinema, blending the excitement of early movie-making with the classic adventure format. While the Tom Swift books are the most well-known, the Victor Appleton name played a significant role in shaping early 20th-century children's literature, providing young readers with tales of adventure, innovation, and heroism.
