The story was written in 1915, and World War I, known as The Great War, was already in progress. As the story opens, Tom is explaining his newest invention to his friend, Ned Newton. Just as Tom is in the middle of explaining the problems he is having, a fire erupts in one of the sheds, where explosives are stored. After the fire has been put out, careful investigation shows that the fire was set deliberately. In preparation for presenting his new airship to the United States Government, Tom has invited a Lieutenant Marbury, from the Navy, to review his ship.

Tom scoffs at the idea, but soon finds out otherwise, as his new airship is hijacked by foreign spies with an unknown agenda.

Tom Swift And His Aerial Warship Or The Naval Terror Of The Seas written by Victor Appleton. The Great War, often known as World War I, was well underway when the story was written in 1915. The narration starts with Tom introducing his most recent invention to his friend Ned Newton. While having this conversation they both observed fire breaking out in one of the sheds where explosives are kept. Then, an investigation reveals that the fire was intentionally started after it had been extinguished. Moreover, Tom has asked Lieutenant Marbury from the Navy to inspect his new airship as he is ready to present it to the US government. Later on, Marbury warns Tom of a potential scheme to destroy his inventions, both old and new. Tom Swift dismisses the concept, but he quickly learns otherwise when foreign spies with an unknown motive commandeer his new airship. In this tale, Tom resolves the problem of excessive weapon recoil by creating a massive airship for military usage. The story has a unique and thriller ending which should be read!
