A gentle-hearted country girl arrives in bustling nineteenth century New England, carrying little more than her strong values and a hopeful spirit. In An Old-Fashioned Girl, Louisa May Alcott offers a classic coming-of-age novel that explores the enduring power of friendship and family values against the backdrop of post-Civil War America.
