| Summary | "Wrecked on Spider Island; Or, How Ned Rogers Found the Treasure" by James Otis is a boys' adventure novel written in the late 19th century. The story focuses on the plight of Ned Rogers, a boy who has faced significant hardships, including being an orphan without a home. When he tries to escape his difficult life, he ultimately finds himself marooned on a deserted island, where he not only battles survival but also stumbles upon a hidden treasure. The opening of the book introduces us to Ned Rogers, a fourteen-year-old boy struggling to survive in Portland, Maine. Ned, having run away from home due to a lack of support and opportunity, takes a job driving cattle in hopes of making it to the city. After a series of unfortunate events, including being mistreated by the captain of a ship he boards, Ned is mistakenly believed to have leprosy, a ruse the captain uses to maroon him on an isolated island. There, Ned discovers not only the harsh realities of survival but also a hidden stash of silver coins, setting the stage for his upcoming adventures and challenges.
