''The Young Explorer'' is a novel written by Horatio Alger Jr. that tells the story of a young boy named Tom Nelson who dreams of becoming an explorer. Tom is a hardworking and determined boy who is inspired by the stories of famous explorers, and he longs to travel the world and discover new lands. However, his dreams are put on hold when his father becomes ill and Tom is forced to take on the responsibilities of the family farm. Despite the challenges he faces, Tom remains steadfast in his desire to explore the world, and he eventually gets his chance when he is hired as a cabin boy on a ship bound for South America. Along the way, Tom faces many dangers and obstacles, but he never loses sight of his goal. With the help of his courage, determination, and the lessons he has learned from his father, Tom becomes a successful explorer and returns home a hero. ''The Young Explorer'' is a timeless tale of adventure, perseverance, and the power of dreams.Ben heard every word that was said, and it confirmed his suspicions. There was no doubt that an attempt would be made to rob him and his companion before morning, and the prospect was not pleasant. By submitting quietly he would come to no harm, and the loss of the money would not be irreparable. He and Bradley had each started with a hundred dollars, supplied by Miss Doughlas, and thus far but little of this sum had been spent. Their employer would doubtless send them a further supply if they were robbed, but they would be reluctant to apply to her, since the loss would be partly the result of their imprudence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
