That Printer of Udell’s

Wright, served as a minister prior to beginning his artistic and writing career. This is the book that young Ronal Reagan read when he was 11 years old and promptly decided that he wanted to become an evangelical Christian, informing his mother that he wanted to be baptised. Reagan obviously identified with the protagonist of this story who like Reagan was the son of an alcoholic father and who through the power of faith became a better man. Dick Falkner came to Boyd City to land a job. But everyone in the bustling mining town refused Dick. Everyone, that is, except George Udell, a printer who took pity on him. In the end, Dick and George confess their sins and profess faith in Christ and the book concludes with his marching off to Washington to assume a political career. Ring a bell!
