A novel of female development, The Lamplighter is a woman's version of the quest story. Its heroine, Gerty, comes on the scene as a child abandoned in the slums of Boston. Rescued by the kindly lamplighter Trueman Flint, she learns to meet life with courage and honesty. The novel ... remained continuously in print until the 1920s ... [and was] second in mid-century popularity only to Uncle Tom's Cabin."--Back cover.
