Summary "The Search for the Silver City: A Tale of Adventure in Yucatan" by James Otis is an adventure novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the character Teddy Wright, a seventeen-year-old boy who embarks on a thrilling journey aboard a yacht named the Sea Dream. The narrative promises exploration and suspense as Teddy and his companion Neal Emery set sail, amidst dreams of discovering a legendary city rumored to be made of silver. At the start of the tale, readers are introduced to Teddy, who finds himself disappointed after his anticipated summer trip to the Adirondacks falls through. However, he receives an exciting invitation from Neal to join him on a cruise on his father's new yacht. Teddy's journey begins with an exhilarating description of their adventures at sea, the friendships forming, and the challenges they face aboard the yacht. The initial chapters set the stage for the main adventure, teasing the theme of exploration as they aim to locate the mysterious Silver City hidden deep within the jungles of Yucatan.
