USA after 1865
USA after 1865
In Horatio Alger’s novel Ragged Dick, Mr. Whitney gives the title character a bit of advice: “…in this free country poverty in early life in no bar to a man’s advancement …. Save your money, my lad, buy books, and determine to be somebody.” (77-78)
Considering the period from Reconstruction to the end of the Machine Age, how true does Mr. Whitney’s advice ring? What are the primary opportunities and obstacles relevant to Mr. Whitney’s blueprint for upward social mobility in the Machine Age? Is his vision equally accessible to all groups and interest? Does it become more or less attainable as the Machine Age progresses over time?
