Herbert Carter's Legacy, the Inventor's Son - Alger Horatio Jr.

Herbert Carter's Legacy is the eighth and concluding volume of the Luck and Pluck series. Those who have read all the stories attentively cannot fail to have discovered that there is one general idea pervading them all. The heroes have been differently situated, and have been led into different paths, but all have met life manfully, and overcome by pluck and patience the obstacles which they found in their way. Those who sit down, and wait passively for fortune to shower her gifts upon them, are likely to wait a long time. Horatio Alger, Jr. authored about seventy books. He was the son of a clergyman, graduated from Harvard. His stories are pure, inspiring and as endearing today as they were when first published.
