About the author

Jr. Horatio Alger

Jr. Horatio Alger

1832–1899

Best known for turning the “rags-to-riches” story into a lasting American myth, this 19th-century writer filled his novels with bootblacks, street boys, and hard-won chances. His books helped shape how generations of readers imagined ambition, luck, and self-improvement.
