By Felicity Barrington This review is not for the cynics and others who hate America, (whether they live here or not): There are many of us who still believe in the 'American Dream'. Who see in America as a land of opportunity, where a person may make what he wants of himself. This is the reason for the success of movies like the Secret, and books like Think and Grow Rich. Haters of this concept don't believe in the philosophy of 'if it's to be; it's up to me' and personal growth- they believe in the 'it's not my responsibility to be successful, it's the governments, or a union, etc' to make things right. For those of us who DO believe in America and what it stands for, we need to relax from time to time, from our dedicated path to success. From time to time, I like to read a novel or two, to unwind, but there are so few are positive, uplifting, and compelling novels that also promote personal growth and success principles. So finding one or two is GREAT NEWS! However I have made a wonderful discover of a new and magnificently published selection of Horatio Alger books, so now we don't just have one or two, but many, many hours ahead of us to relax, recharge and at the same time instill in ourselves the success principles we all know and love!The Young Bank Messenger is one of my favorites: In this story, Ernest ends up cheated of his late father's legacy, so he must overcome beginning life 'without' and strikes out on his own. He moves to the city, and through hard work and practicing lots of success principles, ends up at a bank, and later very successful - with a great ending as he confronts those who stole his inheritance. Ernest shows how following persistence, & 'strive and succeed' principles that Alger promoted he became a success. A real page-turner, powerful characters, dramatic plot, and full of adventure - in short - you'll love it!

A Treasure I Uncovered After Forty Years By Book Nerd Mom5 When I was a kid in the sixties, we spent most Sundays at Grandma’s house with bunches of aunts, uncles and cousins. Since there were no girl cousins near my age, sometimes I got bored and would bring a book to read. Once Sunday I regrettably had forgotten to bring a book, so Grandma took me into her bedroom, deep into her closet and found a book for me. It was old and not very pretty, and the pages were yellow and about to fall apart. I started reading anyway, and boy it was worth it!This treasure is called The Young Bank Messenger by Horatio Alger, Jr. I think this book was made all the more intriguing to me because it was so old and Grandma found it in the back of her closet. No doubt it had belonged to one of my aunts or uncles, or even my dad. I never did ask him. The copyright says 1898 by Henry T Coates & Co. By the time Mom and Dad were ready for us to leave Grandma’s that Sunday, I was hooked and did not want to stop reading. Grandma said I could just have that book, she had no use for it and was glad she had a grandchild that wanted it……. So I took it home and had the pleasure of finishing it.Over forty years later, I still think fondly of that book. When I was married and left home, I brought that book with me. It is now buried upstairs in a closet piled with books and other stuff that my husband and I could not part with from our childhood. Someday I am going to clean out that closet and will find it, but honestly it would probably take a whole day just to take everything out of that closet. When that day comes, I will probably find many other book treasures. I was delighted to find this book available for the Kindle and have had the pleasure of reading it again after all these years.The Young Bank Messenger is still every bit as good as I remembered it. It appears that the setting of this book takes place in the time that it was actually written, which was 1898. Ernest Ray, the hero of the story is sixteen years old and lives in a cabin in Iowa when he finds out that Peter Brant, the “uncle” who has raised him is not really an uncle, but was a servant in Ernest’s father’s home. On his deathbed, Peter tells Ernest that an unscrupulous cousin connived to receive the inheritance that rightfully should have gone to Ernest.Ernest has many exciting adventures that take him across the country from Iowa and eventually to the west coast and then the east coast. He meets quite an assortment of people, and even gets deeply involved with some bank robbers. Through all of his adventures, Ernest always does the right, honest thing, even when being bad would be so much easier and more beneficial. I am not sure if The Young Bank Messenger was written for children or adults, but I loved reading it both as a young teen and again as an adult. Ernest is a good role model for kids. I have encouraged my grandchildren to read this.

Thorsson Horatio Alger books, these are novels that are appeal to those like me who read Think and Grow Rich, and any other older money making books they are `rags to riches stories'My family has really gotten hooked on Alger. These wonderful stories are so powerful today in this economic climate. Back when they were written, there were no stimulus packages, no welfare as we know it, no food stamps, no income tax! Yet, today there is still such despair, that I feel it's very much the same....So having said that, this book is great for two reasons:1) its shows a method and mindset for success! It's not just a story, but the story explains the thinking and mindset of the hero who overcomes terrible odds to find success. The mindset explained is as powerful then as it is today.2) while the story is fiction, the hero figures out a way to succeed - it of course depends on factor 1 above, his mindset, but, once we see how his mind works, he thinks of a plan to become successful - and what I like is the principles that are used are not like typical fiction, but of ways and means that anyone could use to become successful, good business ideas that are still on target for today!This book is great for readers of any age, young or old, as long as you need a lift, and you want something powerful and good in your life, you will enjoy this great work by Alger!It's all about Mindset and Alger knows how to paint a picture of success!
