Facing The World horatio alger 9781542759731 Books
Having never read anything by Alger before, I was excited to start this book. I'm a big fan of 19th century moralistic fiction (it's a weird thing to like, but whatever). I thought the first part of this book was really enjoyable -- a young man is left in the care of a horrible and greedy ward. Will he be able to use his wits (and exceptional moral sense) to prevail? Unfortunatly, the second half of the book was taken up with an overlong and tedious ship adventure.If the entire book had the pace and spirit of the first half, I would have loved this book. As it was, I found myself just longing for it to end.

Facing The World horatio alger 9781542759731 Books Reviews
Not as positive as hoped.
This story started as an Horatio Alger book generally does but finished before what seems to be the actual interesting part begins, that is Harry exploring Australia and becoming a man.
This book isn't quite as good as others he has wrote but still plenty of action on the high seas.
I liked this because not only was it interesting, but I could picture it really happening-a realistic type journey.
No negaitve, just an enjoyable book to read.
