A Fancy of Hers/The Disagreeable Woman by Horatio Alger
179 Pages
Having heard of the Horatio Alger rages to riches stories that seem part of the American Psyche I thought it might be fun to read one as my entry for 100+ year book. Not surprisingly the stories are a little dated but the basic premise is one commonly found in American books and movies. Those who are basically good and hard working will be rewarded while those who are negative and hateful tend to lead unhappy lives and in the end get their comeuppance.
