An anthology of 19 stories by noted women authors, selected from children's periodicals of the late 19th century and reflecting American life and culture of that period.
Excerpt from The Youth's Companion, or an Historical Dictionary: Consisting of Articles Chiefly Selected From Natural and Civil History, Geography, Astronomy, Zoology, Botany, and Minerology; Arranged in Alphabetical Order A multitude of things which are here related or described, as they point directly to a superintending power and all-wise contrivance, might be used as subjects for moral and religious reflections, such reflections, being obvious and 'basy, I have generally left to be made by the reader. If this, however should be thought by some serious and good minds to be a culpable omission, I might plead the example of the Sacred Historians, who briefly recorded facts involving most import ant moral principles, and left them without comment.
