Aliso and Acne is a novel written by James Alexander Wickersham and published in 1881. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the lives of two young women, Aliso and Acne, who are cousins and live in a small town in America. Aliso is a beautiful and kind-hearted girl who is loved by everyone in the town. She is engaged to a wealthy young man named John, but their relationship is threatened when John's father disapproves of the match. Acne, on the other hand, is plain-looking and has a sharp tongue. She is jealous of Aliso's beauty and popularity and often tries to sabotage her cousin's happiness. The novel explores themes of love, jealousy, and family dynamics. It also touches on issues of class and social status, as Aliso's engagement to John is seen as a way for her to rise in society. Wickersham's writing style is descriptive and detailed, painting a vivid picture of life in a small town in the late 19th century. The characters are well-developed and their motivations and actions are believable. Overall, Aliso and Acne is a classic novel of its time, offering a glimpse into the social norms and values of the late 19th century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
