| Summary | "A Copper Harvest; or, The Boys who Worked a Deserted Mine" by Self-made Man is a fiction work written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around two boys, Jack Howard and Charlie Fox, who find themselves embroiled in a thrilling adventure involving a supposedly lifeless prospector, Gideon Prawle, and the discovery of a valuable copper mine in Montana. As the narrative unfolds, themes of friendship, bravery, and the pursuit of fortune take center stage. The opening of the book introduces Jack and Charlie as they explore the mysterious case of a deceased man in the surgery of Charlie's father, the local doctor. Their curiosity leads to an unexpected twist when the presumed dead man, Gideon Prawle, is revived using a galvanic battery, revealing his background as a prospector. As the boys learn about Prawle's valuable copper specimens, excitement builds around the potential for adventure and wealth. This sets the stage for a larger plot, involving treachery and a race against time, as Clymer, a disgruntled former employee of Charlie's father, seeks to steal the very opportunity that Prawle has to foster.
