It is a story that inspires readers to never give up on their dreams and to always strive for success, no matter how difficult the journey may be.He congratulated himself upon being still the possessor of twenty-five cents in silver. It was not much, but it seemed a great deal better than being penniless. A week before he would have thought it impossible that such a paltry sum would have made him feel comfortable, but he had passed through a great deal since then.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
