Frank Merriwell's Races
Frank Merriwell's Races, published in 1903 by Street and Smith, belongs to the long series about the ideal American college athlete that Gilbert Patten wrote under the name Burt L. Standish. Frank, now at Yale, buys the bay gelding that helped him stop a runaway and save Winifred Lee, and the horse draws him into a plot by the mean-spirited Dan Dorman and a gang of gamblers. Wrestling, a boat race, a fight on a train, a kidnapping and a baseball game lead to a tournament and a final victory, while Frank's friends Jack Diamond, Bruce Browning and Danny Griswold supply the jokes. The stories preached clean living, fair play and the Yale spirit to millions of boys. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
