A Merry Christmas

A Merry Christmas collects the best holiday stories of Louisa May Alcott, from the yuletide benevolence of Marmee and her 'little women,' to the recently discovered tales of 'The Quiet Little Woman' and 'Kate's Choice,' to the moving 'What Love Can Do'. Deeply influenced by real-life events, including characters based on Louisa's family members and drawing from her experiences participating in the suffrage and abolitionist movements, these stories have the authentic texture and detail of Christmas in nineteenth-century America.
