An Original Belle is a novel written by Edward P. Roe. The story revolves around a young woman named Belle who is known for her beauty, charm, and wit. She is the daughter of a wealthy family and is used to living a life of luxury. However, Belle is not content with just being a socialite and wants to make a difference in the world. She becomes involved in various charitable causes and starts to see the world from a different perspective. Along the way, Belle meets a man who challenges her beliefs and forces her to question her own values. The novel explores themes of love, social class, and personal growth. It is a compelling story that will keep readers engaged from beginning to end.1885. One of the purposes of this story is to illustrate the power of a young girl not so beautiful or so good as many of her sisters. She was rather commonplace at first, but circumstances led her to the endeavor to be true to her own nature and conscience and to adopt a very simple scheme of life. She achieved no marvelous success, nothing beyond the ability of multitudes like herself. The author has also sought to reproduce with some color of life and reality a critical period in our Civil War. The scenes and events of the story culminate practically in the summer of 1863. The novel was not written for the sake of the scenes or events. They are employed merely to illustrate character at the time and to indicate its development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
