A brisk, brave heartbeat of a tale, Dick Merriwell's Backers livens up late Victorian America with courage, loyalty and a contest of wits that tests more than speed or strength. A boy's own adventure in the classic mould, it proceeds with the sprint and swing of a dime novel, yet carries the moral weight that today's readers expect. This restored edition offers more than a reprint: it anchors the Merriwell series adventures in turn-of-the-century street and schoolyards, where sporting rivalry and honour codes shape character.

A brisk, brave heartbeat of a tale, Dick Merriwell's Backers livens up late Victorian America with courage, loyalty and a contest of wits that tests more than speed or strength. A boy's own adventure in the classic mould, it proceeds with the sprint and swing of a dime novel, yet carries the moral weight that today's readers expect. This restored edition offers more than a reprint: it anchors the Merriwell series adventures in turn-of-the-century street and schoolyards, where sporting rivalry and honour codes shape character. The book blends juvenile adventure fiction and boys' adventure fiction with a sensibility that hints at the broader currents of late Victorian America, while preserving the swagger, camaraderie and clear moral compass that have earned it a lasting place in the classic readers collection. For illustrated edition buyers, the work's design and period flavour invite a fresh engagement with a beloved literary tradition. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this volume is a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Restored for today's and future generations, it honours the dime novel legacy while inviting new readers to discover a pivotal strand of American popular literature. Whether you read for nostalgia or for literary history, this title offers immediacy, warmth and a durable appeal to fans of standish dime novels, and to anyone drawn to stories where courage and loyalty endure.
