You can use a high level gem like Pismo in combination with Mechanize to iteratevely go through each page and concatenate the body of the article. For that you need to know what link brings you to the next page. Google is pushing for the adoption of a convention based on the rel attribute
<a href="blog-post?page=2" rel='next'>next</a>
Here's a very very rough draft of ruby code:
agent = WWW::Mechanize.new
agent.get("http://www.awesomeblog.com/amazing-article")
scraper.text = MyScraper.new(:text => Pismo::Document.new(agent.url))
while agent.page.link_with("rel='next'").click do
pismo_doc = Pismo::Document.new(agent.url)
scraper.text << pismo_doc.lede
end
scraper.save!
This is pseudo code/wilde guess (I don't know the API of mechanize) but you get the general idea.
