"Strong and Steady" is the third volume of the "Luck and Pluck Series." Though the story is quite distinct from its predecessors¹, it is intended to illustrate² the same general principle. Walter Conrad, the hero, is unexpectedly reduced from affluence³ to poverty, and compelled to fight his own way in life. Undaunted by misfortune, he makes up his mind to "paddle his own canoe," and, declining the offers of friends, sets to work with a resolute⁴ will and persistent⁵ energy, which command success in the end.
