| | The History of the Hardy Boys |
| | The new publisher gave the books (and the Hardys) and all-new look, and paperback editions were published along with hardcovers. | | | Although he is said to be the author of every Hardy Boys book, there is actually no writer named Franklin W. Dixon. | | | Simon and Schuster publishes several new volumes each year, and the Grosset and Dunlap reprints of the original 58 books (known to collectors as the Hardy Boys "Canon") still sell briskly. |

| | The Secret Life of the Hardy Boys: Review |
| | In her absorbing, accessible and well-researched book "The Secret of the Hardy Boys," Marilyn S. Greenwald not only covers the life of the man who wrote many of the original Hardy Boys books, but also sheds light on the Stratemeyer Syndicate. | | | Laura Lee Hope, the supposed author of the Bobbsey Twins books, Carolyn Keene, credited with writing the Nancy Drew series, and Franklin W. Dixon, whose name appears on the covers of the Hardy Boys books, are all pseudonyms created by Edward Stratemeyer, founder of a "fiction factory" known as the Stratemeyer Syndicate. | | | For children who love the books about the Bobbsey Twins, Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys, there's another hard truth that they often discover. |

| | Salon Perky fellows in a gay-looking speedwagon: The Hardy Boys return |
| | There are now more than 150 Hardy Boys adventure stories, newer ones boasting titles like "Danger in the Fourth Dimension" and "Bad Rap" (with a cover illustration of the Hardys as white-boy MCs, rockin' the mike). | | | (Although the new Grossett and Dunlap rereleases are being promoted as the return of the "original" Hardy Boys books, they are actually the '60s-era eviscerated versions.) At $14.95, Applewood's editions are pricier than the $5.99 Grossett and Dunlaps, but the difference is obvious in both look and content. | | | This was immediately apparent in the book's ugly tone as it told a tale of Chinese smugglers. |

| | Journal of the Hardy Boys Literary Society |
| | I especially want to focus on the descriptions of the Browning Theater and Vince’s Powerbar, which are hardly accidental, but instead represent the history of the Hardy Boys and Dixon’s hopes for the future of the series. | | | The Browning clearly symbolizes the Hardy Boys series: the first Hardy Boys book, The Tower Treasure, first appeared in 1927. | | | In conclusion, we see the masterful hand of a brilliant artist when we examine any part of the Hardy Boys books, even the table of contents. |

| | An Introduction to the Hardy Boys |
| | Allen Hooper is a lanky, blond boy nicknamed Biff because of his fondness for a distant relative who is a boxer named Biff. | | | Probably the most annoying character in a Hardy Boys book, Smuff was a short, stout man who always wore a checkered suit and soft felt hat. | | | He fancied himself a private detective but was often shown up by Frank and Joe despite his scorn for the two young detectives. |

| | However, they should be a help to those readers who would like to read the books in their originally written version. | | | The table below lists, in order of publication, Hardy Boy titles #s 1 - 58, giving both the date of the First Edition and the date of the First Edition of the Revised Text version. | | | These dates, as shown in the books on the copyright page, will not give the collector much of a clue to the actual printing of a particular book (for that, a guide such as Charles Heffelfinger's The Bayport Companion or Tony Carpentieri's Frank and Joe Turn Blue would be called for). |

| | McFarlane had written several more “Fearless” books before Stratemeyer asked him to author the first three books for a new series, The Hardy Boys — stories about the two teenage sons of a famous detective living in Bayport on the Atlantic seaboard of the United States. | | | After turning out dozens of books personally, he struck upon the idea of hiring writers to produce stories based on his outlines and plots. | | | He did not think of them as his — Stratemeyer had invented the series and outlined the plots — and he thought of his role as that of foster father. |
