Summary "The High School Rivals: or, Frank Markham's Struggles" by Frank V. Webster is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores themes of rivalry, personal integrity, and the challenges of adolescence as it follows the life of Fred Markham, who faces accusations about his father's dishonesty, as well as competition from his schoolmate, Bart Montgomery. The story is set against the backdrop of high school life, sports, and the social dynamics of youth. At the start of the novel, the excitement of a new school year is palpable as groups of students gather at Baxter High School. The focus is on Fred Markham and his rival, Bart Montgomery, who reigns as the school's athletic star. During an encounter, Bart insinuates that Fred's father is dishonest due to a business failure, sparking a heated confrontation between the two. As tensions rise, Fred stands firm in defending his father's honor, setting the stage for conflicts that revolve around loyalty, honor, and the quest for a scholarship that could alleviate his family's financial struggles. The introduction of a new student, James Bronson, adds further dynamics to the existing friendships and rivalries among the boys. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
