By Adeline Dutton Train Whitney, an American poet and author of girl’s books. "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 Fol
...ks" and "The Other Girls"--were asked for to complete the set, and were not delayed by serial publication, but issued at once, in their order of completion, in book form.
