| Summary | "Mark Tidd, Manufacturer" by Clarence Budington Kelland is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the character Marcus Aurelius Fortunatus Tidd, a determined and inventive boy who, along with his friends, takes on the challenge of running a struggling mill owned by the absent-minded Silas Doolittle Bugg. Combining elements of humor and adventure, the narrative explores themes of entrepreneurship, friendship, and the spirit of perseverance. The opening of the book introduces us to Mark and his friends as they eagerly await the end of Mark's father's lengthy supper. The scene is filled with lively dialogue that highlights Mark's character—confident, resourceful, and somewhat overweight—as well as a comedic atmosphere surrounding his father's absent-mindedness and the absurd situations they find themselves in. When Silas arrives, overwhelmed by financial troubles and unable to manage the failing mill, Mark proposes an ambitious plan to take over the mill operations and make it profitable. This sets in motion a blend of misadventures and ingenuity as the boys embark on a journey to transform the mill while confronting various challenges and colorful characters along the way.
