"As for the boy," said Squire Pope, with his usual autocratic air, "I shall place him in the poorhouse." "But, Benjamin," said gentle Mrs. Pope, who had a kindly and sympathetic heart, "isn't that a little hard?" "Hard, Almira?" said the squire, arching his eyebrows. "I fail to comprehend your meaning."

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Couldn't put it down By Colin Sweetman This book is an easy read for children and adults alike. From the moment I began reading I could not put it down until I had finished.Alger was a fantastic writer, but I become vexed by the same themes that ride though his work. This is a good novel no doubt, but it will be along the same lines as every other work in the canon.Outline: *SPOILER ALERT*A young boy becomes orphaned after his only relative, his father, dies. The town squire, Mr. Pope, sees it as his business to take-care of the boy (who is only 16 years of age at the time), by turning him into a pauper and forcing him to a life of penury in the town's Almshouse, governed by Mr. Tucker and his wife.Of course, none of this is to the heroes desire (Phillip Gray), who constantly defies the orders of the Squire to live a life off charity. Phil is kidnapped by the Squire, and subsequently brought to the poorhouse. Previously, Phillip inflated the Squire's desire to put him in his care by the willing effort of keeping his only prized property; his violin. The Squire however is determined to make him sell it in order to pay off his father's outstanding debts in the town.Eventually, Phillip escapes from the town poorhouse and leaves Norton (the town which he grew up). The Squire does not pursue him, instead he merely becomes disgruntled.Eventually he makes loads of money on his violin by playing concerts. He gets swindled along the way by a Professor Roccabocca, whom he befriended on the road. Then, he leaves to New York after making acquaintence with a boy on the road, who left New York to fight Indians in the West.Phil manages to persuade Walter not to run to the West, and instead return to New York with him.After reunification with his father, Walter promises never to run away again. Phil and his father negotiate a deal whereby the young Phil would become Walter's guardian in exchange for paying for Phil's remaining education in a decent private school.~It's not the best ending I've ever read to be honest though.
0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Overrated. By Worm_without_glasses This book had great reviews but it fell very short of my expectations. It was not very good or realistic or interesting to read. The characters weren't very credible/realistic, the events seemed to work out too smoothly to be true, and the writing style was old but simplistic and dull.
