Synopsis:
Book #4 in the Ragged Dick series, and another exciting story. Rufus (or "Rough & Ready" as his street name), an entrepreneurial newsboy, escapes with his younger sister from an abusive, drunken step-father, and vows to set up a better life for them even though this step-father does not let it happen so easily. Exciting stuff, and as always, great lessons learned, both morally and fiscally. (https: //www.travis.media/books-read-and-cours...) Included in this Illustrated Edition of the 1869 version of "Rough and Ready" are all four original illustrations, rejuvenated, and 10 additional, iconic New York City illustrations that are unique to this edition of the book.
