Description: Ragged Dick, Or, Street Life in New York with the Boot-Blacks Horatio Alger Jr. by Horatio Alger, Paula Benitez Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Ragged Dick; or, Street Life in New York with the Boot Blacks is a Bildungsroman by Horatio Alger Jr., which was serialized in Student and Schoolmate in 1867 and expanded for publication as a full-length novel in May 1868 by the publisher A. K. Loring. It was the first volume in the six-volume Ragged Dick Series and became Algers best-selling work. The tale follows a poor bootblacks rise to middle-class respectability in 19th-century New York City. It had a favorable reception. Student and Schoolmate reported their readers were delighted with the first installment, and Putnams Magazine thought boys would love the novel. One modern scholar considers the story a "puerile fantasy" about class assimilation. The plot and theme were repeated in Algers subsequent novels and became the subject of parodies and satires.
