Book Description
Excerpt from Frank Merriwell Down South The man who lay on a bed of grass in one corner of the wretched adobe hut turned a reproachful look on the little professor. You are wrong, he asserted, in a voice that seemed to have gained strength for the moment. I am not de ranged - I am not deceived by an hallucination. With my eyes I have seen the wonderful Silver Palace - yes, more than that, I have stood within the palace and beheld the marvelous treasures which it contains.

Frank Merriwell at Yale
Author: Burt L. StandishPublisher: Wildside Press LLC
ISBN: 1434462218
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
Frank Merriwell was the fictional creation of Gilbert Patten, who wrote under the pseudonym Burt L. Standish. The model for all later American juvenile sports fiction, Merriwell excelled at football, baseball, crew, and track at Yale while solving mysteries and righting wrongs. He played with great strength and received traumatic blows without injury. A biographical entry on Patten noted that Frank Merriwell "had little in common with his creator or his readers." Patten offered some background on his character: "The name was symbolic of the chief characteristics I desired my hero to have. Frank for frankness, merry for a happy disposition, well for health and abounding vitality." Merriwell's classmates observed, "He never drinks. That's how he keeps himself in such fine condition all the time. He will not smoke, either, and he takes his exercise regularly. He is really a remarkable freshie." Merriwell originally appeared in a series of magazine stories starting April 18, 1896 ("Frank Merriwell: or, First Days at Fardale") in Tip Top Weekly, continuing through 1912, and later in dime novels and comic books. Patten would confine himself to a hotel room for a week to write an entire story.
