| Summary | "Dick Merriwell's Assurance; Or, In His Brother's Footsteps" by Burt L. Standish is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. This book is part of the Merriwell Series, which features stories centered on the athletic adventures and moral lessons of the Merriwell brothers. The central character, Dick Merriwell, embodies ideals of perseverance, sportsmanship, and leadership, as he navigates the challenges of a baseball game while managing the expectations and confidence of his team. The opening portion introduces the Fardale Military Academy's baseball team as they prepare to face the semi-professional Great Northern A.A. Despite doubts about their ability to compete, the cadets maintain a sense of optimism, particularly about Captain Merriwell's leadership. However, tension arises when it is revealed that Dick is injured and must decide whether to pitch, which could endanger his health and affect the team’s future games. Conflict escalates when his teammate Chet Arlington expresses his desire to pitch instead, highlighting themes of rivalry, confidence, and responsibility as Dick ultimately must confront his own limitations while trying to inspire his team.
