What this book is about

One of the later volumes in Martha Finley's enormously long Elsie Dinsmore series, following the descendants of the original Elsie through yet more adventures of piety, family, and Christian virtue. The series, which Finley wrote from 1867 into the 1900s, was among the most read American fiction of the Victorian era and is now primarily of interest to historians of evangelical Christian culture.
