Description
1896 Little Women by Louisa May Alcott Children CLASSIC Civil War Slavery
“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.”
― Louisa May Alcott, Little Women
Little Women "has been read as a romance or as a quest, or both. It has been read as a family drama that validates virtue over wealth", but also "as a means of escaping that life by women who knew its gender constraints only too well". (Barbara, Well Read Lives”). This early edition includes the first part of the famous story that follows the lives of four sisters from childhood to adulthood in mid-nineteenth-century New England.
This charming two-part tome is based on the Roberts 1880 edition with more than 200 illustrations by Frank T. Merrill and a picture of the home of the little women, by Edmund H. Garrett. A fine piece of American literature!
