A quick easy read. Interesting look at the rags to riches story Horatio Alger was known for. Herbert Carr, the protagonist of the story, is a great role model of "sweat equity." He is honest, loyal, and hardworking boy and eventually gets rewarded for his efforts by a wealthy kind friend who is equally admirable.
Note: Hard work itself does not rescue the boy from his fate, but rather some extraordinary act of bravery or honesty, which brings him into contact with the wealthy benefactor.
A very productive author, Horatio Alger Jr. wrote more than a hundred books on the same theme: that honesty, cheerfulness, virtue, thrift, and hard work would be rewarded with success. He can be credited with helping to create a unique American philosophy of "Strive and Succeed."
Work hard. Live honestly. Be fair. Success will follow.
