About this book

The Young Miner, or, Tom Nelson in California, is by Horatio Alger. Peabody says he would not be satisfied with five thousand dollars, and the young Bostonian names about fifty thousand as the sum that would satisfy. The young Bostonian says he would buy a nice house at the South End, furnish it handsomely, and live in style.

When John Mills asks "Who is she?" the answer is that it is the daughter of a Boston merchant. By an arrangement with the party, Mrs. Fletcher prepared their meals, and thus the party fared better than most of the early pioneers. Tom shouts to Mr. Onthank asking what he can do to help, and the Yankee answers helplessly "Blamed if I know".

Horatio Alger

Horatio Alger Jr. was an American author who wrote young adult novels about impoverished boys and their rise from humble backgrounds to middle-class security and comfort through good works. His writings were characterized by the "rags-to-riches" narrative, which had a formative effect on the United States from 1868 through to his death in 1899.
