Things were going on blithely at Woodburn, everybody deeply interested in the preparations for the approaching wedding, as were all the relatives and connections on the neighboring estates and those on more southern plantations. Woodburn seemed a centre of attraction; relatives and friends were constantly coming and going, many consultations were held as to suitable gifts, especially for Grace and Harold. There was great interest shown by all in the preparation of the trousseau, and Alma and one or two assistants were very busy over it. There were many shopping expeditions, in which Grace sometimes shared, though rather against Harold's wishes, so fearful was he that she might take cold or suffer from over-exertion. He had long been her careful physician, but now was not only that, but also her promised husband and ardent lover. And to please him Grace left the greater part of the shopping to the other members of the family, and made some of her selections by samples brought by them or the mails.

The Elsie Dinsmore books are timeless classics (in my humble opinion, anyways). The simplicity of the stories can sometimes be overlooked, but there are always found good morals, Christian people who strove to honor God in all they do, and Bible verses that every young lady should know and understand. It's a great coming of age series, and a great novel for religious and non religious young ladies and men as well.

Excerpt from Elsie and Her NamesakesIn the meantime, plans for the wedding and the honeymoon were discussed. Some one spoke of a trip to the North, but Harold vetoed that promptly. It was too late in the season now for Grace to try that. He must take her to a warmer climate.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
