In London and on a Southern plantation in the 1850s, Elsie Dinsmore, who has always tried to live a truly Christian life, recovers from a failed romance, assumes responsibility for her inheritance, and waits for love.
During her tenth summer, Elsie is reunited with old friends, travels throughout New England, and introduces her father to the woman who will become her new mother.
While visiting an elderly, eccentric great-aunt in Ohio, eighteen-year-old Elsie is courted by a young man who has been sent by her uncle Arthur to win not only her hand, but her fortune as well.
Violet Travilla and her large Southern family must adjust to the many changes in their lives brought about by the end of the Civil War.
Adapted from Martha Finley's 1876 sequel to the popular Elsie Dinsmore novels, these revised and updated, modern-language books introduce readers to yet another delightful Christian heroine.
