Summary: "Bob, the Photographer: or, A Hero in Spite of Himself" by Edward Stratemeyer is a coming-of-age novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a young boy named Bob Alden, who faces adversity while working for a harsh farmer named Joel Carrow and dreams of becoming a photographer.
