Description

"Jo's Boys" is the third and final book in Louisa May Alcott's beloved trilogy that began with "Little Women" and continued with "Little Men." The novel picks up where "Little Men" left off, and follows the lives of the boys who attended Plumfield School and their transition into adulthood. The story focuses on the lives of several of the former students of Plumfield, including Nat, Dan, Emil, and Tommy. We see them face new challenges and struggles as they navigate their way through young adulthood. Nat and Dan, in particular, face difficult choices as they try to make their way in the world and come to terms with their pasts.

She was a prodigious writer of both fiction and non-fiction, and was an active participant in the Transcendentalist movement. Her works were greatly influenced by the social change that occurred during the 19th century in America, particularly in regards to women's rights.
