Book Description
"Though not Alger's first book, Ragged Dick, published in 1867, was the beginning of his series of stories of poor boys who rose from [rags] to riches. ... Of course, little ragged Dick overcomes poverty and scorn to win success as the distinguished Richard Hunter. He, in turn, becomes the protector of Mark, the match boy, hero of the subsequent Alger novel."--Cover.

Book Description
Mark the Match Boy is the third volume in Alger's "Ragged Dick Series." Between the first and third volume, Richard Hunter, or "Ragged Dick" as he was known, has found a good job and gained some education. Eventually he and a friend help a boy named Mark, who tried to earn a living selling small boxes of matches. Mark becomes Richard's ward. While this is happening, they are trying to locate the grandson of a wealthy man named Hiram Bates. It turns out that Mark is the missing grandson. Horatio Alger was a strong proponent of sound social values. He preached against smoking, drinking and wasting time and money. Two boys in the book show what happens when they don't follow Alger's advice. They have low-paying jobs, and rather than work hard to get ahead, one talks the other into stealing from his employer. Of course, he is caught and loses his job. Included in this Illustrated Edition of the 1869 version of "Mark, the Match Boy" are all three of the original illustrations, rejuvenated, and 10 additional illustrations of New York City that are unique to this edition of the book.

Book Description
*This Book is annotated (it contains a detailed biography of the author). *An active Table of Contents has been added by the publisher for a better customer experience. *This book has been checked and corrected for spelling errors."Mark, the Match Boy," is the third volume of the "Ragged Dick Series," and, like its predecessors, aims to describe a special phase of street life in New York. While it is complete in itself, several characters are introduced who have figured conspicuously in the preceding volumes; and the curiosity as to their future history, which has been expressed by many young readers, will be found to be gratified in the present volume.The author has observed with pleasure the increased public attention which has been drawn to the condition of these little waifs of city life, by articles in our leading magazines, and in other ways; and hopes that the result will be to strengthen and assist the philanthropic efforts which are making to rescue them from their vagabond condition, and train them up to be useful members of society. That his own efforts have been received with so large a measure of public favor, not limited to the young readers for whom the series is especially written, the author desires to express his grateful thanks.
