Synopsis

The Elsie Dinsmore Novels, Martha Finley, in our opinion is the author of the best Series of novels that we have seen in our forty-three years of reviewing. Written by Martha Finley, an unmarried teacher of the last century, these novels proved to be a means of conveying her deep love for Christ Jesus. She loved her Lord, she loved His Word, and this love was passed on to His sheep through the writing of by far the best and most Biblical novels you will ever read or see. Altogether there are 28 of these novels, all built around Elsie Dinsmore, her immediate family, her extended family, and her neighbors.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Preface. WITH this volume, bringing the Story of Elsie and her Children down to the present time, the series closes. It was not by reque:;t of the author's personal friends, that either this or anyone of the pr~rious volumes was written, but in acquiescence with the demands of the Public-the friends and admirers of Elsie herself; and we know that as child, as young girl, as wife and mother, she has had many friends who have been loath to part with her. May they find neither her nor her children less lovable in this, than in the earlier volumes, and may their society l)rove sweet, comforting and help· CuI to many readers and friends both old and new. M. F. iii
