<dc:description id="description">A street tough undergoes a transformation as he navigates the dangerous worlds of Chicago’s slums, a South Pacific island, and the wilds of Mexico.</dc:description>
<meta id="long-description" property="se:long-description" refines="#description">
&lt;p&gt;Billy Byrne, a rough and unpolished young man, finds himself entangled in a series of unexpected events that lead him from the urban jungle of early 20th century Chicago to the high seas and, eventually, to revolutionary Mexico. When he and a wealthy heiress named Barbara Harding become shipwrecked on a remote island, the harsh realities of survival force Billy to reevaluate his values and confront his own identity. He undergoes a profound transformation, discovering hidden depths of courage, compassion, and integrity within himself. As Billy’s character evolves, so does the dynamic between him and Barbara, creating a captivating narrative that explores themes of identity, redemption, and the impact of one’s past choices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/edgar-rice-burroughs"&gt;Edgar Rice Burroughs&lt;/a&gt; weaves a compelling narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats, blending elements of action, suspense, and introspection. Billy’s internal conflict adds depth to the story, making it more than just a typical adventure tale. &lt;i&gt;The Mucker&lt;/i&gt; is a classic example of Burroughs’ storytelling prowess, showcasing his ability to craft engaging narratives that resonate with readers across generations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The Mucker” was first published as “The Mucker” in &lt;i&gt;All-Story Cavalier Weekly&lt;/i&gt; on October 24, 31 &amp;amp; November 7, 14, 1914 and “Return of The Mucker” in &lt;i&gt;All-Story Weekly&lt;/i&gt; on June 17, 24 &amp;amp; July 1, 8, 15, 1916 before being published as a book on October 31, 1921 by A. C. McClurg &amp;amp; &lt;abbr&gt;Co.&lt;/abbr&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
