520 1 $a"Ragged Dick; or Street Life in New York with Boot Blacks is the best-known of Horatio Alger's quintessential rags-to-riches stories as well as his most commercially successful publication. It is canonical as a cultural text rather than as a purely literary one, as this Norton Critical Edition reflects. The text of Ragged Dick is based on the 1868 first book edition, annotated for student readers." ""Contexts" begins by looking at Ragged Dick through the lenses of 1860s New York and Alger's, own life there. Maps of Lower Manhattan 1868 and of the Five Points neighborhood, photographs by Jacob Riis, contemporary illustrations, and published accounts of New York's "Street Arabs" suggest public interest in - and fear of - the homeless boys who prowled the city streets, looking for work and for food." ""Criticism" is thematically organized and includes nine wide-ranging contemporary reviews of the novel; parodies and responses to Horatio Alger's legacy by Stephen Crane, Gilbert W. Gabriel, James Thurber, Amiri Baraka, Victor Wilson, and Gary Scharnhorst; and critical interpretations by Mary Rath Walsh, Glenn Hendler, Michael Moon, and Hildegard Hoeller."--BOOK JACKET.
