Summary "Elsie's Journey on Inland Waters" by Martha Finley is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces a charming family, particularly focusing on the character of Elsie, as they explore the cultural and artistic wonders of a world's fair while aboard their yacht named "Dolphin". The narrative likely weaves themes of family bonds, curiosity, and historical storytelling through the experiences of the characters as they interact with art and each other. At the start of the journey, the family engages in discussions about their plans to visit various exhibits at the fair, particularly the Art Palace. Little Elsie's inquisitiveness shines as she expresses her desire to learn about the painting of Joan of Arc, prompting Grandma Elsie to promise her a story about it. The opening establishes a familial warmth and intellectual curiosity, setting the stage for meaningful lessons and adventures as they navigate both physical and historical waters together.
