Synopsis
The Hidden Harbor Mystery is Volume 14 in the original The Hardy Boys book series published by Grosset & Dunlap and written by Franklin W. Dixon. The book's original version was published in 1935 and a revised edition was published in 1961. The 1961 version is one of the more significant instances of rewriting a series book to remove racial stereotypes that a new audience might find offensive.
