About the Book

Chapter I Wonderful News Letter for you, Tom Swift. Ah, thanks, Mr. Wilson. This is the first mail Ive had this week. Youve been neglecting me, and the young inventor took the missive which the Shopton postman handed to him over the gate, against which Tom was leaning one fine, warm Spring day. Well, I get around as often as I can, Tom. Youre not home a great deal, you know. When youre not off in your sky racer seeing how much you can beat the birds, youre either hunting elephants in Africa, or diving down under the ocean, or out in a diamond mine, or some such out-of-the-way place as that. No wonder you dont get many letters. But that one looks as if it had come quite a distance. So it does, agreed Tom, looking closely at the stamp and postmark. What do you make out of it, Mr. Wilson? and then, just as many other persons do when getting a strange letter, instead of opening it to see from whom it has come, Tom tried to guess by looking at the handwriting, and trying to decipher the faint postmark. What does that say? and the young inventor pointed to the black stamp. Hum, looks like Jube--no, that first letters a K I guess, and Mr. Wilson turned it upside down, thinking that would help. I made it out a G, said Tom. So it is. A G--youre right. Gumbo--Twamba--thats what it is--Gumba Twamba. I can make it out now all right. Well, where, for the love of my old geography, is Gumba Twamba? asked the lad with a laugh. Youve got me, Tom. Must be in Sweden, or Holland, or some of those foreign countries. I dont often handle letters from there, so I cant say. Why dont you open your letter and find out who its from? Thats what I ought to have done at first. Quickly Tom ripped open the much worn and frayed envelope, through the cracks of which some parts of the letter already could be seen, showing that it had traveled many thousand miles before it got to the village of Shopton, in New York State. Well, Ive got to be traveling on, remarked the postman, as Tom started to read the mysterious letter. Im late as it is. You can tell me the news when I pass again, Tom. But the young inventor did not reply. He was too much engaged in reading the missive, for, no sooner had he perused the first few lines than his eyes began to open wide in wonder, and his manner plainly indicated his surprise. He read the letter once, and then over again, and when he had finished it a second time, he made a dash for the house. I say dad! cried Tom. This is great! Great news here! Where are you, dad? Say, Mrs. Baggert, he called as he saw the motherly housekeeper, wheres father? Ive got great news for him? Where is he? Out in the shop, I think. I believe Mr. Damon is with him. And blessing everything as usual, from his hat to his shoe laces, Ill wager, murmured Tom as he made his war to the shop where his father, also an inventor like himself, spent much of his time. Well, well, Im glad Mr. Damon is here, for hell be interested in this. Tom fairly rushed into the building, much of the space of which, was taken up by machinery, queer tools and odd devices, many of them having to do with the manufacture of aeroplanes, for Tom had as many of them as some people have of automobiles....
