Summary | "The Young Circus Rider; or, the Mystery of Robert Rudd" by Horatio Alger Jr. is a novel written in the late 19th century. This engaging story revolves around young Robert Rudd, a talented bareback rider in a circus, and his adventures alongside the towering Anak, a Norwegian giant. The narrative explores themes of friendship, bravery, and the challenges that come with unique talents in the colorful world of circus life. At the start of the tale, we meet Robert Rudd, a fifteen-year-old boy who has been raised in the circus after a chance encounter led him to join its ranks as a bareback rider. Together with Anak, his massive companion, they navigate the challenges posed by local bullies like Nathan Tarbox, an unkind farmer who has taken a particular dislike to Robert and the circus. The opening chapters feature a series of amusing and tense encounters, including a dramatic showdown between Anak and Tarbox when the latter attempts to punish a boy for trespassing. Robert’s quick wit and Anak's sheer strength highlight the contrasts between their youthful exuberance and Tarbox's brutish nature, setting the stage for further adventures and mysteries to unfold in their circus lives.
