Publisher's Summary

A Girl of the Limberlost, a novel by the writer and naturalist Gene Stratton-Porter, was published in 1909 as the sequel to her earlier novel Freckles. The tale unfolds in and around the Limberlost Swamp of north-eastern Indiana and in the nearby town of Onabasha. The main character, Elnora Comstock, lives with her widowed mother, Katharine Comstock, on the edge of the wetlands. The embittered Katharine blames her daughter for the death of her husband, who was swallowed by quicksand. To make a living, Elnora collects and sells moths to collectors...and eventually, things work together to heal the family.

Delightful story, brought back memories of my childhood school days! Bravo! Glad I found it again 70+ years later.
