True to Himself; Or, Roger Strong's Struggle for Place
Produced by Jim Weller
"True to Himself; Or, Roger Strong's Struggle for Place" by Edward Stratemeyer is a novel written during the late 19th century, specifically aimed at a young audience, particularly boys and girls. The book follows the story of Roger Strong, a typical American country lad, and his sister Kate as they navigate the challenges of life after their father is imprisoned for a crime he insists he did not commit. Faced with the stigma of their father's downfall, Roger and Kate struggle for acceptance, making their way in a world that shuns them. The beginning of the novel introduces us to Roger's difficult circumstances when he encounters Duncan Woodward, the son of a wealthy merchant, who accuses him of being a thief because of his father's arrest. A confrontation ensues, showcasing Roger's determination to defend his family's honor against bullying and injustice. As the story unfolds, we learn of the siblings' plight, their supportive guardian, Widow Canby, and the emergence of an intriguing mystery involving both their father's alleged innocence and a series of thefts that entwine their lives with that of John Stumpy, a dubious character intent on causing trouble. This opening chapter sets the stage for a gripping adventure filled with themes of perseverance, integrity, and the pursuit of justice. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
