About the Author:
Clifford B. Hicks served as a U.S. Marine in the South Pacific during World War II, where he earned the Silver Star. After the war, he joined the writing staff of Popular Mechanics, eventually serving as Editor-In-Chief. Mr. Hicks also wrote science, health and technology stories for several other national magazines. He penned 16 books for children, including the Alvin Fernald and Peter Potts series. He and Rachel, his wife of more than 60 years, had three children, eight grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
Review:
Not only is Alvin's Secret Code an exciting adventure, it's an engaging primer on cryptography. Of all Clifford B. Hicks's marvelous Alvin Fernald books, this is easily my favorite. -- --Joshua Glenn, coauthor of the UNBORED books
A fast moving, comical plot (buried treasure to boot)--it's certain to cause an increase in the number of amateur agents across the country. --Kirkus, September 1963
