The Wide, Wide World is a classic novel by Elizabeth Wetherell, first published in 1850. The story follows the life of a young girl named Ellen Montgomery, who is separated from her mother and sent to live with her aunt in a different state. As Ellen grows up, she experiences various trials and tribulations, including the death of her father, the cruelty of her aunt, and the loss of her best friend. Throughout it all, Ellen remains true to herself and her faith, finding solace in nature and in the kindness of others. The novel explores themes of family, love, friendship, and faith, and is considered a significant work of 19th-century American literature.And away they went. Ellen drew two or three sighs at first, but she could not help brightening up soon. It was early--not sunrise; the cool freshness of the air was enough to give one new life and spirit; the sky was fair and bright; and Mr. Van Brunt marched along at a quick pace. Enlivened by the exercise, Ellen speedily forgot every thing disagreeable; and her little head was filled with pleasant things. She watched where the silver light in the east foretold the sun's coming.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
