Little Women

The March sisters search for romance, success, and happiness in this completely unabridged edition of Little Women, Louisa May Alcott’s classic coming-of-age tale.

A gorgeous edition of a classic tale to share with the next generation, Little Women is a coming-of-age story of virtue and true love in nineteenth-century America.

A true classic, Little Women follows the lives of Jo, Meg, Beth, and Amy March, four spirited sisters living in Civil War–era America. Join the Marches as they navigate New England life with a father at war, financial hardships, and the lure and intrigue of the handsome young man who lives next door.

Originally published in 1868, Little Women was an immediate bestseller that inspired three sequels: Good Wives, Little Men, and Jo’s Boys. Little Women is based directly on author Louisa May Alcott’s own early life. Alcott’s father, a reformist and staunch abolitionist, was able to often meet with luminary Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and other figures that would influence Louisa May to become one of the great American authors of the post–Civil War era.

This collectible edition of Little Women includes:

• An elegant faux-leather cover with foil-embossed designs

• Complete and unabridged text
