Paperback. The Horatio Alger myth has worked itself deeply into American culture.

That conviction has reinforced notions of capitalism and the Protestant work ethic. Editor(s): Cook, Charles Orson. Num Pages: 160 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: HB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 229 x 157 x 10. Weight in Grams: 268.
