About this book

Horatio Alger Jr.'s amazing book "Jack's Ward: The Boy Guardian". The narrative centers on twelve-year-old New York City resident Jack Harding. He finds a newborn daughter on his family's doorstep one day. Jack and his parents are alarmed when a woman who claims to have been the baby girl's nurse reappears seven years later.

The story explores mystery, intrigue, and adventure as Jack goes through this unanticipated circumstance. Originally released in 1875, this copy is still comprehensive and unaltered, perfectly encapsulating Alger's diligence, bravery, and empathy principles.
