| Summary |
"Frank Merriwell, Jr., in Arizona; or, Clearing a Rival's Record" by Burt L. Standish is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book follows the adventures of Frank Merriwell, a captivating young athlete, and his friends as they navigate challenges, rivalries, and the intricacies of friendship in the Arizona wilderness. Themes of loyalty, competition, and personal growth are central to the unfolding narrative. The opening of the story introduces two young men, Lenning and Shoup, who are struggling with exhaustion while traversing the Bitter-root Canyon in Arizona. Shoup, battling addiction to drugs, is near collapse, but Lenning is determined to find a way to confront Merriwell, whom he harbors resentment towards. In a twist of fate, they come across an overturned stagecoach and its lone occupant, an old woman, hinting at potential mischief and the duo's desperate need for money. This sets the stage for conflict as Merriwell and his companions engage in a canoe race while Blunt, a cowboy with a motive for revenge against Lenning and Shoup, embarks on a pursuit to retrieve stolen money related to the old woman, intertwining their paths and destinies.
