Elsie children eBook Martha Finley
This is the third in a long series of Elsie Dinsmore books. I found the series fascinating for its historical context.The series spans the period of the few years before the American Civil War to some years afterward.Since the books were written during those years, it gives a perspective of the deep South I had never encountered. It is not politically correct according to our standards today, and some readers will find some of the terms and ideas very offensive.However, that is how things were then and it is definitely an education for that reason if no other.It is very American protestant, the author colors everything in terms of the Bible.
I am not sure which volume describe the activities of the Ku Klux Klan, but those chapters do have violence. The author was an avid Unionist and was highly patriotic.
Some of the characters have annoying habits (in vol.1, Elsie is a little girl who is psychologically abused and always tear-soaked).But some of the interactions of characters are pretty amazing,even for 100+ years ago.
I would recommend starting with the first book and going on through the whole series. On the whole I am glad I read it all.

Elsie children eBook Martha Finley Reviews
I closed the book after the first page. I just can't take the pidgin English.
Finley's books are an enjoyable read for children with a higher reading comprehension or adults looking for a cute story.
o.k. book
Nice pleasant book about wealthy families
and not so wealthy relatives. A lot of Bible quotes, rules and good deeds.
These books were free on the kindle and my daughter has just been eating them up. She loves the godliness shown in them but also loves how the stories unfold. Much better than some of the junk that kids read these days.
Martha Finley continues to have beautiful and good stories that make it hard to put down. Wonderfully way to show christian values
What a wonderful Christian book! Part of the theme goes along with what we are studying in Sunday School right now --"Trials, Don't Resent Them as Intruders. It was very illuminating in places. I highly recommend it to Christian readers.
