Herbert Carters Legacy

Book excerpt: *This Book is annotated (it contains a detailed biography of the author). *An active Table of Contents has been added by the publisher for a better customer experience. *This book has been checked and corrected for spelling errors. Herbert Carter's Legacy is the eighth and concluding volume of the Luck and Pluck series. Those who have read all the stories attentively cannot fail to have discovered that there is one general idea pervading them all. The heroes have been differently situated, and have been led into different paths, but all have met life manfully, and overcome by pluck and patience the obstacles which they found in their way. These stories have been intended to illustrate the proverb that God helps those who are willing to help themselves. Those who sit down, and wait passively for fortune to shower her gifts upon them, are likely to wait a long time.
