The Good Girl and True Woman or Elements of Success Drawn from the Life of Mary Lyon and Other Similar Characters

The plan of this book is similar to that of its companion The Poor Boy and Merchant Prince. Mary Lyon is the leading character, around which are grouped a large number of incidents from the lives of other distinguished women, both for the purpose of illustrating certain elements of female character, and of making the book more attractive to the young. The author hopes this volume will assist girls in cultivating the highest virtue, and in prosecuting the work of life with credit to themselves, and acceptance to God.
