Elsie At Nantucket
By Martha Finley (Farquharson)
Published by George Routledge And Sons: London c1900 (undated)

" Elsie at Nantucket by Martha Finley is part of the beloved "Elsie Dinsmore" series, first published in 1880. In this installment, Elsie and her growing family travel to the scenic island of Nantucket for a summer retreat. The novel blends wholesome domestic life with moral instruction, as the characters engage in beach outings, local excursions, and reflective conversations rooted in Christian values. Through her interactions with friends and family, Elsie continues to exemplify patience, faith, and virtue, serving as a moral compass in both joyful and challenging moments.

As with other books in the series, Elsie at Nantucket emphasizes themes of obedience, humility, and religious devotion. The setting provides a backdrop for new experiences, gentle adventures, and moral lessons, especially as the children in Elsie's care learn from both their successes and mistakes. Finley's narrative maintains a tone of gentle piety, reinforcing the importance of scripture, prayer, and family unity. The book reflects the values of its time while offering readers a comforting vision of idealized Christian family life."
