A Girl of the Limberlost
by Gene Stratton-Porter
An environmental classic ready for a new generation of YA readers!
A Girl of the Limberlost takes place in Indiana, in and around the famous Limberlost Swamp. Even in 1909, this impressive wetland region was being reduced by heavy logging, natural oil extraction and drainage for agriculture.
The book features Elnora Comstock, a high school student whose mother blames her for her father's death. Even though they are poor, Elnora refuses to sell any of the family trees to loggers and Elnora is left to find a way to pay for the things she needs without destroying the things she loves.
