Book Description
The Pulitzer Prize–winning biographer of Louisa May Alcott illuminates the world of Little Women and its author. Since its publication in 1868–69, Little Women, perhaps America’s most beloved children’s classic, has been handed down from mother to daughter for generations. It has been translated into more than fifty languages and inspired six films, four television shows, a Broadway musical, an opera, and a web series. This lavish, four-color edition features over 220 curated illustrations, including stills from the films, stunning art by Norman Rockwell, and iconic illustrations by children’s-book illustrators Alice Barber Stevens, Frank T. Merrill, and Jessie Wilcox Smith. Renowned Alcott scholar John Matteson brings his expertise to the book, to the March family it creates, and to the Alcott family who inspired it all. Through numerous photographs taken in the Alcott family home expressly for this edition—elder daughter Anna’s wedding dress, the Alcott sisters’ theater costumes, sister May’s art, and Abba Alcott’s recipe book—readers discover the extraordinary links between the real and the fictional family. Matteson’s annotations evoke the once-used objects and culture of a distant but still-relevant time, from the horse-drawn carriages to the art Alcott carefully placed in her story to references to persons little known today. His brilliant introductory essays examine Little Women’s pivotal place in children’s literature and tell the story of Alcott herself—a tale every bit as captivating as her fiction.

From Louisa May Alcotts beloved classic Little Women, Geraldine Brooks has animated thecharacter of the absent father, March, and crafted a story "filled with the ache of love and marriage and with the power of war upon the mind and heart of one unforgettable man" (Sue Monk Kidd). With "pitch-perfect writing" (USA Today), Brooks follows March as he leaves behind his family to aid the Union cause in the Civil War. His experiences will utterly change his marriage and challenge his most ardently held beliefs. A lushly written, wholly original tale steeped in the details of another time, March secures Geraldine Brookss place as a renowned author of historical fiction.

Book Description
Louisa May Alcott's The Complete Little Women Series is a timeless classic that follows the lives of the March sisters as they navigate the challenges of growing up during the Civil War era. Alcott's writing style is marked by its relatable and authentic portrayal of family dynamics, female empowerment, and societal expectations. The series consists of four books: Little Women, Good Wives, Little Men, and Jo's Boys, each showcasing the growth and development of the characters against the backdrop of historical events. Alcott's work is both heartwarming and thought-provoking, making it a favorite among readers of all ages. Louisa May Alcott, herself, drew inspiration from her own experiences growing up in a transcendentalist community and supporting her family through her writing. Her strong-willed and independent nature is reflected in the characters she created, particularly Jo March, who is often seen as a semi-autobiographical depiction of Alcott herself. I highly recommend The Complete Little Women Series to readers looking for a beautifully written story that delves into themes of family, love, and personal growth. Alcott's timeless tale continues to resonate with audiences today, making it a must-read for anyone seeking a powerful and emotional literary experience.
