Madeline Leslie is a pseudonym of Harriette Newell Woods Baker.
Some advertisements noted book #6 as "Never Give Up; or, The Young
Housekeeper". It appears that this volume was not published and
instead "I'll Try" was book #6. In some of these same ads Volume 7 in
the series is listed as "The Rich Poor and the Poor Rich; or, Little
Agnes". It is believed that this title was not published within this
series. Of note is a book entitled "Old Moll and Little Agnes; or, The
Rich Poor and the Poor Rich". This volume was published as a non
series volume by Shepard, Clark and Company in 1857.
Cloth. Various colors seen. Blindstamped. Gilt decorative spine
pattern and gilt title and series name on the spine. Each title
has a different illustrated title page.
