I tried this a few years ago and didn't like it, probably because of the "country" tone of some of the characters (I hate dialect in children's books). It was MUCH better on rereading, and I'm glad I've collected most of the series now.

This was TERRIBLE. I'm used to old series being un-PC and often downright racist (I've developed a high tolerance to get to the enjoyable old-timeyness), but this particular Ruth Fielding book is even worse than a lot of the Bobbsey Twins I've read. Yikes. Now I remember why I avoid books set in the South....the dialect, characterization of African Americans, and romanticized nostalgia for the antebellum South is nauseating. The only reason I slogged through all this crap was for plot continuity with the rest of the series. Thank goodness Ruth headed back North to (hopefully) less overt social commentary.

Also, the plot in this one is a little weak. Would have been boring even without being totally offensive.
