Synopsis
Ted Scott is a young pilot entrusted with flying valuable air mail over the rugged Rocky Mountains. Along the way he encounters dangerous storms, difficult mountain terrain, mechanical problems, and criminals determined to stop the mail from reaching its destination. Using courage, skill, and quick thinking, Ted faces one challenge after another in this fast-paced aviation adventure that captures the excitement of early flight during the 1920s.
History
Published in 1927 by Grosset & Dunlap, Over the Rockies With the Air Mail is one of the earliest books in the Ted Scott Flying Stories series. Franklin W.

Several writers contributed to the books while maintaining the same familiar author name.
