In this 1900 Horatio Alger, Jr. novel, published by A. L. Burt, of New York, Gerald Lane heads west to seek his fortune and claim the money owed his father by an unscrupulous former business partner. As might be expected, this is not as simple or straightforward as it might at first seem.
Horatio Alger, Jr. (January 13, 1832 – July 18, 1899) was a prolific 19th-century American author, best known for his many formulaic juvenile novels about impoverished boys and their rise from humble backgrounds to lives of middle-class security and comfort through hard work, determination, courage, and honesty. His writings were characterized by the "rags-to-riches" narrative, which had a formative effect on America during the Gilded Age.
