The Hundredth Man by Frank R. Stockton is a classic novel that tells the story of a group of men who are trapped on a desert island. The men are all from different walks of life and have different personalities, but they must work together to survive. The title of the book comes from the idea that the hundredth man is the one who can think outside the box and come up with a solution to their problems. As the men struggle to survive, they must also deal with conflicts that arise between them. The novel is a thrilling adventure story that explores the human psyche and the limits of human endurance. Stockton's writing is vivid and engaging, and the book is a must-read for anyone who loves adventure stories and tales of survival.1899. Thonias Hewlings Stockton, clergyman, wrote fantastic tales for children under the pen name Frank R. Stockton. He also wrote books for adults. Among his amusing books for children Rudder Grange is the best known. The Lady and the Tiger, Adventures of Captain Horne, Mrs. Null, Casting Away of Mrs. Lecks and Mrs. Aleshine, The Hundredth Man, Great Stone of Sardis, and Captain�������s Tollgate were also quite popular. The book begins: In one of the liveliest portions of a very lively metropolitan street was situated the popular resort known as Vatoldi�������s. It was a restaurant which owed its extensive patronage to the inducements it offered to persons of refined tastes and moderate purses. It was in a shopping district, and from early breakfast-time until a very late supper hour, Vatoldi�������s seemed never to be without customers, and John People seemed always to be behind the little desk near the entrance of the long and handsome room.
