Step into the bustling streets, humble lodgings, counting rooms, and hopeful parlors of nineteenth-century America with The Horatio Alger Jr. Library.

Here you will hear, in full, the stories that made Horatio Alger Jr. one of the most widely read authors of his age: tales of poor boys, honest work, hard lessons, unexpected opportunity, and the determined climb toward respectability and independence.

These are stories of bootblacks, newsboys, clerks, strivers, and young men who discover that courage, thrift, perseverance, and good character may yet open a door where none seemed to exist.

If you have ever taken pleasure in an old-fashioned tale of adversity overcome, fortune earned, and hope rewarded, you will find much here to enjoy.Public domain
