Hardy Boys
The Hardy Boys Mystery Stories first appeared in summer of 1927 with The Tower Treasure; The House on the Cliff; and The Mystery of the Sawmill. The many series’ follow brothers Frank and Joe Hardy whom live in the town of Bayport (New Jersey is the supposed state) with their famous P.D. father Fenton Hardy, their mother, and their aunt Gertrude. They chase around looking for suspects; often accompanied by Chet Morton and Tony Prito- among others. Frank often dates Callie Shaw – Joe admires Iola Morton (Chet’s older sister). Iola is killed off in a later series due to a mystery, but re-appears in The Undercover Brothers series. There are other friend that tags after the brothers- Biff Hooper, Jerry Gilroy, and Phil Cohen.
Unlike Nancy Drew, they tend to maintain the same character through every book, even as trends and eras change.
