A little about the story

Shipwrecked on a remote island, George, Harry and their companion the Professor have already built a home and tamed wild yaks to pull their wagon. Now they set out on a fourth voyage of discovery to explore the rest of the island, and meet leopard-like beasts and other surprises.

The Professor teaches them how to make what they need from scratch, even an electric battery. It is a Swiss Family Robinson for the age of science, full of practical inventions.
