Beschreibung

In "The Border Boys Along the St. Lawrence," John Henry Goldfrap crafts a captivating narrative that weaves together adventure, friendship, and the struggles of youth against the backdrop of North America'Äôs significant borderlands. Employing a lively prose style interspersed with rich descriptive passages, Goldfrap captures the essence of the landscape along the St. Lawrence River, highlighting its natural beauty and cultural significance. This work is situated within the broader context of early 20th-century American literature that often foregrounds themes of exploration and camaraderie, resonating with readers who appreciate tales of youthful daring and moral growth. John Henry Goldfrap was an adventurer both in spirit and in life, with experiences that likely shaped his understanding of youth and border cultures. Born in the mid-19th century, Goldfrap matured amidst a rapidly evolving America, marked by industrialization and shifting social dynamics. His background, combined with keen observations of the socio-political climate of his time, ignited his imagination, stimulating a narrative that not only entertains but also educates young readers about resilience and integrity. I wholeheartedly recommend "The Border Boys Along the St. Lawrence" to those who seek an engaging tale steeped in historical authenticity and adventure. Perfect for readers young and old seeking to rekindle the embers of youthful escapades, Goldfrap's classic remains a vital addition to the canon of American literature, inviting reflection on the timeless themes of friendship, loyalty, and the spirit of exploration.

    A detailed chronicle of the career of the late 1800s trailblazing investigative reporter, Nellie Bly. A letter to the Editor of The Pittsburgh Dispatch turned into a position of journalist with the paper. She tackled tough societal issues, unheard of from woman in those days. However, the businesses she exposed threatened to pull advertising, so she was moved to cover topics deemed more appropriate for a woman. She ultimately became a freelance journalist and later moved to New York and worked as an investigative reporter for New York World, often going undercover, or as it was called then, being a "stunt reporter". She also reported on her 72-day trip around the world. The biography details her marriage to a business tycoon, her time as President of the company and her ultimate return to journalism. Contextual side stories offer further perspective on key details, locations, and people referenced in Bly's story. Archival photographs, drawings, and paintings are chronologically arranged, adding visual context to her remarkable life and career, as well as the inclusion of further reading and website recommendations, maps, glossary, and index. Content developed for young readers, interest level grades 4-6 (reading level, grade 5).
