More about the book

The life of Horatio Alger, Jr. is marked by his transformation from a Unitarian minister to a prolific writer, particularly known for his popular boys' books. Born in Massachusetts and a Harvard graduate, his brief clerical career ended controversially due to allegations of misconduct. Relocating to New York City, he achieved literary success with "Ragged Dick" in 1868, which solidified his reputation. Alger's works often embody themes of perseverance and the American Dream, resonating with young readers of his time.
