A Girl of the Limberlost by Gene Stratton-Porter Book Summary

The novel is set in Indiana. Most of the action takes place either in or around the Limberlost, or in the nearby, fictional town of Onabasha. The novel's main character, Elnora Comstock, is an impoverished young woman who lives with her widowed mother, Katharine Comstock, on the edge of the Limberlost. Elnora faces cold neglect by her mother, a woman who feels ruined by the death of her husband, Robert Comstock, who drowned in quicksand in the swamp. Katharine blames Elnora for his death, because her husband died while she gave birth to their daughter and could not come to his rescue. The Comstocks make money by selling eggs and other farm products, but Mrs. Comstock refuses to cut down a single tree in the forest, or to delve for oil, as the neighbors around them are doing, even though the added income would make their lives easier. The central character of Stratton-Porter's previous novel, Freckles, is a man whose job it is to patrol and guard valuable timber trees in the Limberlost Swamp. Freckles appears in Girl of the Limberlost as a friend of Elnora.

Delightful!. This is such a delightful story. I love the elegance of the language and the descriptions of a passed time in our history. Very educational regarding moths.

Elnora and co. Is wonderful. Excellent, excellent, excellent!!!!!!! I love this book. It is one of my favorites, and I wish it did not end. This is the second time that I read this, and it is even better than I remembered. Although, this is a long book, I read the whole thing in a few weeks. I just couldn't stop! This ebook version is just as good as the hardback.

The girl of limberlost. I loved it. It was such a uplifting story. Billy was my favorite. But Elnorea was a breath of fresh air.

Loving it. Onw of the most tasteful books I have read that can compare to L.M. Montgomery’s books. I love it…..

Classic. This is a favorite from my childhood. I highly recommend it to those who love classics.

A Girl of the Limberlost.. I read this book twice when I was in high school in the 50th. I read it twice and have remember it all these years one of the greatest book I have ever read. Five stars +

Delightful. Delightful story. Unexpectedly informative. Wonderful, sweet, flawed, honest characters. I was very absorbed by it.

Beautiful story but too perfect. Once I started reading this book I could not stop. The relationships between mother and daughter, relatives, friends, and all kinds are so genuine, kind and precious. The beauty of the nature was revealing. While I love happy ending, I also believe human nature and personality do not change like a miracle. It takes long process to bring about just a little change not to mention a sudden dramatic change. Overall, however, I enjoyed the story very much.
