Description
A green book containing five short stories written by Selma Lagerlöf and edited by Jules Mauritzson. The book is assumed to have been used as a teaching aid for individuals learning Swedish as the contents of the book include a vocabulary section in which Swedish words are translated to English. Inside the front cover is a logo for the Augustana College & Theological Seminary's Denkmann Memorial Library. A small slip of paper left in the book has seven different monograms of the letters "LTC."
