Summary "Frank Merriwell's Backers; Or, The Pride of His Friends" by Burt L. Standish is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book follows the adventures of Frank Merriwell, a young man caught in a dangerous situation involving a mining syndicate and a cast of ruthless outlaws. As Frank navigates through perilous traps, threats to his life, and a wealthy mining trust eager to take his claim, he embodies the qualities of courage, wits, and resilience. The opening of the novel introduces us to Frank Merriwell, who finds himself cornered by a group of armed ruffians in Arizona, determined to retrieve valuable papers he possesses. In a display of cunning, Frank manages to evade capture as an Indian ally, Old Joe Crowfoot, takes a vital package to safety. As the night progresses, Frank uses his resourcefulness to confront his captors and maintain his hope for escape while contemplating the corrupt motivations behind the mining trust's actions. The tension and stakes are set high, inviting readers into a thrilling narrative filled with adventure, conflict, and the promise of resolution. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
