Elsie at the World's Fair — Martha Finley

Elsie Dinsmore, now a loving, matronly grandmother, accompanies family and friends on an extended yachting excursion from their southern plantation homes to the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893. Arriving in the harbor of Chicago on July 2, they are in time to witness the great Independence Day celebration, which serves as a fitting start to a summer of fun and adventure in the White City.
