Summary: "Elsie's Young Folks in Peace and War" by Martha Finley is a children's historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Elsie Raymond and her companions during a sailing trip along the Maine coast, where they engage in discussions about historical events related to the American Revolutionary War and the War of 1812.
