Ramona is a novel written by Helen Hunt Jackson, originally published in 1884. The story takes place in Southern California in the late 19th century and follows the life of a young girl named Ramona, who is half-Scottish and half-Native American. Ramona is raised by her adoptive mother, Se�����ora Moreno, on a wealthy ranch where she is treated as a servant and is constantly reminded of her inferior status. Ramona falls in love with Alessandro, a Native American man, but their relationship is met with opposition from both their families and society. The novel explores themes of racial prejudice, injustice, and the struggle for identity in a changing world. It is considered a classic of American literature and has been adapted into several films and stage productions.Hearing these words, Ramona came to the window, and leaning out, whispered, Are you talking about Alessandro's staying? Let me come and talk to him. He must not go. And running swiftly through the hall, across the veranda, and down the steps, she stood by Alessandro's side in a moment. Looking up in his face pleadingly, she said: We can't let you go, Alessandro. The Senor will pay wages to some other to go in your place with the shearers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
