EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Granger Art on Demand showcases a powerful scene from one of Horatio Alger's immensely popular 19th-century books for boys, "Ragged Dick". The engraving depicts the constant theme of heroism and resilience that Alger expertly weaves into his stories. In this particular illustration, Ragged Dick, the protagonist, emerges as a true American hero. The image captures an intense moment where Ragged Dick fearlessly dives into treacherous waters to rescue the son of a wealthy man. With determination etched on his face, he defies societal expectations and transcends economic barriers to save a life. This act of bravery exemplifies the spirit of America during that era - a land where anyone can rise above their circumstances through hard work and noble deeds. The artist skillfully portrays the essence of transportation in 19th-century America by incorporating elements such as swimming and waterways. The viewer is transported back in time to witness this heart-stopping rescue unfold before their eyes. Horatio Alger's books were not only entertaining but also served as moral compasses for young readers across America. Through characters like Ragged Dick, Alger instilled values such as perseverance, honesty, and selflessness in generations of boys who dreamed big despite their humble beginnings. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our rich literary history while celebrating the enduring legacy left behind by Horatio Alger - an author who inspired countless individuals to believe in themselves and strive for greatness.
