Including a detailed biographical annotation on Gene Stratton-Porter's life and achievements. *** Freckles, a nameless Irish waif when the story opens, moved by the power of a mighty love, takes hold of his life, performs deeds of heroism in his guardianship of the Limberlost timber leases, and at length, through the help of the woman he loves, comes into possession of his name and patrimony. Other characters, only a little less interesting, are McLean, a member of the Grand Rapids Lumber Co., Freckles' friend and boss; Lord O'More, who seeks a lost relative and finds him in the hero, and Black Jack, a handsome villian, whose thought of repentance comes too late. *** The Limberlost Collection brings together the beloved writings of Gene Stratton-Porter, one of early 20th-century America's most cherished authors and naturalists. Best known for her Limberlost novels-A Girl of the Limberlost, Freckles, and others-Stratton-Porter wove tales that combined heartfelt storytelling, strong-willed protagonists, and a deep reverence for the natural world. This series includes her most celebrated fiction alongside her lesser-known novels, short stories, and nature essays. Rich with themes of resilience, self-discovery, and ecological wonder, her works were groundbreaking in giving voice to both the marginalized and the wild landscapes of Indiana's wetlands. The Limberlost Collection is a tribute to a writer who inspired generations to see beauty in nature, strength in individuality, and hope in the face of adversity. It is an essential library for readers of classic American literature, environmental writing, and timeless coming-of-age stories.
