Jack the Conqueror

This is a healthful, cheerful English story, telling of the difficulties about the path of a poor boy, and how, one by one, he overcame them, until he became an illustrious and useful man. The book is tastefully illustrated, and contains excellent lessons for boys who would rise into a useful life, as well as for older people, who may do a great work for God by a little help given in Christ’s name and with good sense.—The Christian Cynosure.

“Resolve well, and persevere” is the excellent motto of the book, and is strikingly exemplified by the hero of the story. Jack so completely conquers one difficulty after another as to rise from a ragged, useless boy to an honored educator in cap and gown. The narrative is an incitement to nobler living, and it is pleasant, safe, and easy reading for boys.—The Golden Rule.
