In Out for Business, or Robert Frost's Strange Career, sixteen-year-old Robert Frost is thrust from comfort into conflict when a mysterious telegram from his mother brings a "great surprise" home in the form of James Talbot, her cold, sharp-featured new husband. Robert's shock quickly turns to anger as Talbot reveals his jealous, controlling nature, bristling at the memory of Robert's deceased father and trying to assert authority over the household. What begins as a family upheaval becomes a tense struggle of wills, as Robert clings to his pride, his mother wavers between loyalty and concern, and Talbot's smooth talk masks vindictive cruelty. Forced to rely on himself, Robert meets hardship with courage, common sense, and integrity. He refuses dishonest work, endures punishment, and begins seeking his own place in the world. Along the way, he encounters suspicious men, hidden schemes, and the promise of broader adventure beyond the home he has lost. A classic Horatio Alger-style story, this novel follows a hardworking country boy's rise through adversity, emphasizing perseverance, self-reliance, and the moral strength needed to earn success. This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
