Overview

"The Boy Allies in the Baltic; Or, Through Fields of Ice to Aid the Czar" by Ensign Robert L. Drake is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story features young British officers, Jack Templeton and Frank Chadwick, who are involved in dangerous espionage missions during World War I, specifically focusing on their strategic actions in the Baltic Sea against German forces. The plot illuminates their encounters with various obstacles, including enemy forces and treachery, as they seek to gather intelligence and assist the Russian Czar. The opening of the book introduces readers to the D-17 submarine and its crew led by Lord Hastings, setting the stage for a perilous mission targeting the fortified German base of Heligoland. As the D-17 navigates treacherous waters, Jack and Frank, veterans of previous adventures, engage in strategic discussions and prepare for the challenges ahead.
