More about the book

The life of Horatio Alger, Jr. is marked by his transition from a Unitarian minister to a prolific author known for his boys' books, which captivated young readers. Born in Massachusetts and a Harvard College alumnus, his brief clerical career ended in scandal, prompting a move to New York City to pursue writing. His breakthrough came in 1868 with "Ragged Dick," solidifying his reputation in children's literature and leading to the creation of over 100 popular titles that emphasized themes of hard work and perseverance.
