Description
"Louisa May Alcott" portrays a writer as worthy of interest in her own right as her legendary character Jo March, and addresses all aspects of Alcott's life: the effect of her father's self-indulgent utopian schemes, her family's chronic economic difficulties and frequent uprootings, her experience as a nurse in the Civil War, the loss of her health and, sadly, her reliance on opiates in middle age. Stories and details culled from Alcott's journals, together with revealing letters to family, friends, publishers, and admiring readers, plus recollections of her family, friends, and famous contemporaries provide the basis for this lively account of the author's classic rags-to-riches tale.
