Summary |
"Captured by the Arabs" by James H. Foster is an adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story likely follows a group of American explorers, including two young men named Joe Lewis and Bob Holton, who are on an expedition to the Sahara Desert in search of hidden treasures. Alongside their fathers and an archaeologist, they find themselves in a web of intrigue as they confront suspicious locals and ultimately face challenges that their expedition entails. The opening of the novel introduces the main characters aboard a steamer, where excitement and anticipation build as they approach North Africa. Joe and Bob are eagerly preparing for their adventure, buoyed by tales of hidden treasures in the Sahara. However, their initial excitement is tinged with unease when they notice two suspicious Arabs who seem to be following them. Their concerns deepen when it is implied that treasure hunters seeking the same riches may pose a threat, leading to potential conflicts and complications as they navigate this unfamiliar territory filled with danger and deception.
