Résumé

"The Boy Allies in Great Peril" by Clair W. Hayes is a gripping tale set during World War I, focusing on the adventures of two young American boys, Hal Paine and Chester Crawford. The story begins in Rome, where the boys find themselves amidst the political turmoil as Italy is on the brink of joining the war against Austria. The narrative kicks off with the boys witnessing a theft of important military documents from an Italian officer, Colonel Fuesco, by an Austrian spy named Hans Robard. Determined to retrieve the stolen papers, Hal and Chester embark on a daring mission, showcasing their bravery and quick thinking. The plot thickens as the boys are mistakenly accused of being spies themselves, leading to their arrest. However, they are soon recognized by Major Derevaux, an old friend and ally, who vouches for their loyalty to the Allied cause. With their names cleared, Hal and Chester volunteer to recover the stolen documents, a task that requires them to infiltrate the Austrian embassy in Rome. Accompanied by Chester's Uncle John, who is eager to relive his youthful days of adventure, the boys devise a plan to retrieve the papers. The narrative is filled with suspense as they navigate through challenges, including a confrontation with Robard, who is determined to escape with the documents. The story highlights themes of courage, loyalty, and the spirit of adventure, as the boys use their wits and resourcefulness to aid the Allied forces.
