| Summary | "The Boy Broker; Or, Among the Kings of Wall Street" by Frank Andrew Munsey is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Herbert Randolph, a young boy from Vermont who arrives in New York City with dreams of success but quickly realizes the challenges he must face in the bustling metropolis. The narrative promises to explore Herbert's journey as he seeks employment, encounters the realities of city life, and navigates the complexities of ambition. The opening of the novel introduces Herbert as he arrives in New York, filled with hope but already feeling overwhelmed. He struggles to find his footing in the city, seeking employment and understanding the unfamiliar slang of local boys. Herbert meets Bob Hunter, a street-savvy newsboy who offers him assistance and insight into life in the city. As he attempts to navigate job applications, Herbert's idealistic views clash with the harsh realities he encounters, revealing both his ambition and the daunting competition he faces. This sets the stage for the tension and conflict that will unfold as he seeks to establish himself in a world that is both glittering and unforgiving. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
