Harding of St. Timothy's

Harding of St. Timothy's (1906)
by Arthur Stanwood Pier

→

Book 2 in the St. Timothy's series of school stories. First published in The Youth's Companion as "Harry Harding's Last Year." Illustrated by Ernest Fosbery

A novel of American school life with a wholesome flavor and a genuine appeal to boys. Describing the student world of "St. Timothy's," its ambitions,emulations,football jousts, etc., it presents a stirring picture in little of the rivalries, passions, errors, victories, and defeats of the larger life of which school days are the prelude. [...] Harry Harding, the titular hero of the novel, is a fine manly young fellow with unusual gifts of intellect, but marred slightly by a latent selfishness not infrequently found in boys of his type. The real hero is another sort of lad, Rupert Ormsby, a veritable Prince Rupert, whom the author paints at full length, con amore, and as tho he had intimately known the original. ... —from a review in The Literary Digest, Nov. 1906
