Horatio Alger, Jr. (1832 – 1899) was one of the most popular American authors in the last 30 years of the 19th century and perhaps the most socially influential American writer of his generation. He is best known for his many juvenile "rags-to-riches" narratives about the rise of boys from humble backgrounds to lives of middle-class security through hard work, determination, courage, and honesty. Thus, his somewhat biographical writings had a formative effect on American youth during the Gilded Age. He produced books in large quantities, most of them during the period of 18 to 18. Our selection is taken from the later period of his activity.
