Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Frank Merriwell's Nobility; Or, The Tragedy of the Ocean Tramp" by Burt L. Standish is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book follows the exploits of Frank Merriwell, a determined and resourceful young man who embarks on a journey to Europe on the tramp steamer "Eagle" with friends to further his studies after overcoming hardships that forced him to leave Yale. The story hints at themes of adventure, resilience, and the spirit of camaraderie among the young protagonists. At the start of the narrative, we meet Frank Merriwell and his companions as they set sail from New York, reflecting on their past experiences and ambitions. Frank, having faced adversity with optimism, is excited about the journey ahead and preparing for a fresh chapter in his life. However, the opening chapters also introduce tension when a Frenchman aboard expresses disdain for the boisterous American students, leading to an altercation that foreshadows potential conflict during their voyage. The presence of mysterious characters, like Bloodgood and Montfort, and hints of danger set up an atmosphere ripe for intrigue, promising readers an engaging tale filled with suspense and character development.
