Brown cloth, gilt-stamped lettering and black decoration on spine and front, xiv, 570pp. First Thus, or Omnibus Edition. Introduction by Russel Crouse. Publisher's Note and List of 135 Alger Titles. Dust jacket features illustrations from early editions. Binding is tight and square, spine ends and corners bumped, previous owner's bookplate on front pastedown else text is bright & clean. Dust jacket is price clipped, appears a bit smugged and has a bit of light chipping on spine ends, protected in a new Gaylord-brand archival clear plastic cover (removable). Includes the complete text of the following four books: Struggling Upward; Or, Luke Larkin's Luck. Ragged Dick; Or, Street Life in New York. Phil, The Fiddler; Or, The Young Street Musician. Jed, The Poorhouse Boy. "Ragged Dick" is the very first Alger book and in most respects the best of them. There is more originality of dialogue and characterization in the portrayal of Dick than is to be found in any of the later books. It is also the first of six books in the Ragged Dick Series. "Struggling Upward" in title, plot, and style strikes the average for the great mass of his stories -- this is a fair "'if you've read one you've read 'em all'" sample. It is the fourth and last in the Way To Success Series. "Phil, The Fiddler" stands out as Alger's one "socially significant" work. It was written to attack a specific evil and led to the abolition of the padrone system. It is the third in the eight volume Tattered Tom Series. "Jed, the Poorhouse Boy" represents the deterioration of Alger's average. It carries the "Struggling Upward" formula to extremes of absurdity and hasty, absent-minded plotting strewn with false leads never followed, until it becomes the next thing to a parody of his own style. (Remarks from the Publisher's Note.)
