Summary

"Marcus; or, The Boy-Tamer" by Walter Aimwell is a tale of youthful guidance and transformation in the late 1800s, centering on Marcus, a young boy on a Vermont farm who takes on the task of helping his cousin Oscar, a boy from Boston trying to leave a difficult past behind him. The story explores how older boys can influence younger ones by looking at themes such as self-control, moral growth, and adjusting to a new environment. With the support of his family in Vermont, Marcus helps guide Ronald and looks after Oscar as he adapts to life on the farm, faces new challenges, and attempts to fit into his new life.
