Andy Grant's Pluck - edition by Horatio Alger. Children eBooks @ . Reviews

Alger made quite a name for himself, back around the turn of the twentieth century, writing uplifitng stories about young boys from unfortunate backgrounds. Invariably, as here, their hard work and innate niceness eventually lead them to great success. I haven't read others so I can't honestly generalize, but I see a lot of reusable elements here. There was the advantaged and snobby schoolmate, eager to sabotage Our Hero so that only he would win at whatever, hoist on his own petard. Another jealous co-worker conniving against him, ditto. A mortgage about to foreclose, saved by Andy's business acumen, thrifty ways, and perhaps a bit of what we'd now call insider trading. Somehow, he manages to come out of each scrape even further ahead, and his detractors even further behind.

I don't recall readnig any of Alger's sermonettes before, and can't think of much reason to again. I can, however, honestly say that I've done it once.

(PS This is long out of copyright and available electronically at no cost. I promise you, it will be worth every penny.)
These books are intended for the young boy audience but I think that all of us can benefit from a good moral lesson.
I have been trying to read all of Alger's books for over 60 years. This another one of the books that shows a young man getting from being poor but all comes out in his favor.
