With a large 7.44"x9.69" page size and the complete text of both parts of this beloved classic, this Summit Classic Press edition is printed on hefty bright white paper with a fully laminated cover featuring an original full color design. Page headers, modern design, and page layout exemplify the attention to detail given this collector-quality volume. Original content created specifically for this edition includes a detailed author biography, a bibliography of Alcott's work—including her well-known works and lesser-known stories published anonymously or under pen names—and footnote annotations to aid modern readers. Since its publication, "Little Women" has been a perennial favorite. Based on Alcott's experiences growing up with her sisters, the story was originally published as two separate novels, "Little Women, or Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy" in 1868 and "Good Wives" in 1869. This edition combines these into one volume. The book follows the March sisters' childhood and subsequent marriages, blending autobiographical elements with fictional storytelling. Louisa May Alcott, born in 1832, was associated with the Transcendentalist movement, and her early works gained recognition through her affiliation with notable figures like Ralph Waldo Emerson. She also wrote for the Atlantic Monthly and served as a nurse during the Civil War, experiences that influenced her later works. An abolitionist and feminist, Alcott was the first woman to register to vote in Concord, Massachusetts. She died in 1888 after suffering a stroke. The sequel, "Little Men," is also available.
