"Leslie Goldthwaite" was the first of a series of four, which grew from this beginning, and was written in 1866 and the years nearly following; the first two stories--this and "We Girls"--having been furnished, by request, for the magazine "Our Young Folks," published at that time with such success by Messrs. Fields, Osgood & Co., and edited by Mr. Howard M. Ticknor and Miss Lucy Larcom. The last two volumes--"Real Folks" and "The Other Girls"--were asked for to complete the set, and were not de
...layed by serial publication, but issued at once, in their order of completion, in book form. From Adeline Dutton Train Whitney, an American poet and writer of books for girls.
