| Summary | "Making His Mark" by Horatio Alger, Jr. is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on Gerald Lane, a boy who grapples with the sudden changes in his life following the death of his father and the arrival of his stepbrother, Abel. The narrative explores themes of social class, resilience, and the quest for independence as Gerald navigates his new circumstances under the control of his stepmother. The opening of the book introduces Gerald Lane as he faces an unpleasant conversation with his stepmother, Mrs. Lane, regarding the inheritance left by his father. Feeling disinherited, Gerald learns of his stepmother's plans to withdraw him from his education and force him to work in a grocery store. The sudden revelation of Abel, Mrs. Lane's son from a previous marriage, complicates Gerald's situation further as he feels replaced and unvalued. The dynamic established between the characters sets the stage for Gerald's struggle as he seeks to find his own worth and define his path amidst familial challenges.
