Charlotte Maria Tucker (1821 – 1893) was a prolific writer and poet for children and adults, who preferred to write under the pseudonym A.L.O.E. (a Lady of England).

This is the 4th and final book in the Heroes of Faith Series. The characters familiar to that series engage in spiritual warfare – in this case, struggles of heart that trample down our joy in the Lord: Disappointment, Discontentment, Dissension, and Distrust. While these are formidable foes, they can and shall be conquered in Christ.

Through faith the heroes old were made strong; they were valiant in executing their mission to triumph over the fierce force of the Midianites. As Gideon conquered, so through the power of God Almighty, we too also shall. A welcome new addition to the Lamplighter Rare Collector’s Series, from the author fondly known as “A Lady of England” (A.L.O.E.).

“While the Heroes of Faith Series might be my favorite Lamplighter publications, I think Triumph Over Midian might be my favorite in that series!” — Mark Hamby

Character themes in this story: selflessness and selfishness.
