A Collection of Fireside Readings Vol. 3

by Various, Mark Hamby (Preface)

Young Fred Mathers is determined to clear his father's good name and pay off the debt he owed before he heroically lost his life. Fred's diligence and hard work earn him the respect of his master as well as the cruel taunting of a jealous co-worker, troublesome Timothy Trump.

This fine story demonstrates how crucial it is to trust God through times of painful struggle and emotional turmoil, for in His perfect timing God's purpose will be made clear at last. I highly recommend this story as a family read-aloud; it will instill many priceless truths into the hearts of boys and girls as they seek to do right in the midst of daily pressures and trials.

About the author

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.
