Now or Never
Excerpt
The story contained in this volume is a record of youthful struggles,
not only in the world without, but in the world within; and the success
of the little hero is not merely a gathering up of wealth and honors,
but a triumph over the temptations that beget the pilgrim on the plain
of life. The attainment of worldly prosperity is not the truest
victory, and the author has endeavored to make the interest of his
story depend more on the hero’s devotion to principles than on his
success in business.
