| Summary | "Alex the Great" by H. C. Witwer is a comedic novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers around Alex Hanley, a rural man from Vermont who arrives in New York City with aspirations to succeed in a bustling metropolis that he perceives as ripe for opportunity. Through the lens of his humorous and naive confidence, the story explores themes of ambition, self-belief, and the often absurd experiences one encounters in the quest for success. The opening of the book introduces Alex's character as he arrives in New York, accompanied by his bemused cousin, and immediately highlights his charm and sheer determination. Despite lacking knowledge about the city and its ways, Alex exudes optimism as he plans to make his mark in a place he deems filled with opportunities. His interactions with his cousin and various city dwellers set the tone for his forthcoming adventures, illustrating his unwavering belief that he can achieve anything with confidence and a little ingenuity. As the story unfolds, it's clear that his journey will be marked by both the challenges of adjusting to city life and the opportunities that come his way.
