| Summary | "Dick Merriwell's Glory; Or, Friends and Foes" by Burt L. Standish is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Dick Merriwell, a cadet at Fardale Military School, who becomes a local hero after achieving remarkable success in a football game against White Academy. The book unfolds themes of friendship, rivalry, and personal growth as Dick navigates the challenges posed by jealous classmates and his own expectations while training under the guidance of his older brother, Frank. The opening of "Dick Merriwell's Glory" introduces readers to Dick Merriwell's rise to fame at Fardale Military School following an impressive football performance. As Dick is celebrated by his peers, he simultaneously faces jealousy and hostility from classmates who feel overshadowed. Chief among his adversaries is Jabez Lynch, who attempts to undermine him through treacherous means. Meanwhile, Frank Merriwell takes on the role of mentor, striving to mold his brother into a well-rounded athlete mentally and physically. As the first chapter establishes the competitive atmosphere at the school, it sets the stage for Dick's journey toward greatness, friendship, and the inevitable conflicts with those envious of his success.
