I learned so much about Louisa May Alcott in this tagged book- I recommend it if you are a fan. The Little Women book is mine from childhood.

Louisa believed in complete racial integration, which was considered quite radical at the time, even among abolitionists.
Morning coffee after walking. Wonder if I will see more hummingbirds while drinking from this cup?

Today I had the opportunity to visit several literary locations in Concord, Massachusetts. I started with a tour of Louisa May Alcott‘s Orchard House, walked through the authors ridge in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, toured the Wayside, walked by Emerson‘s house, and then hiked to the site of Thoreau‘s cabin at Walden Pond. During part of the hike I listened to more of this biography. Overall, it was an amazing day!

I started listening to this biography again before my upcoming trip to Boston and a planned day in Concord. I‘ve long considered Louisa May Alcott one of my favorite authors and also find her life story interesting.
I listened for a while this morning while weed-eating under the fence for the cows. #BooksontheFarm

To go along with our #spirited readalong of The Abbot's Ghost I'm choosing books by and about Louisa May Alcott for today's nonfiction and fiction pairings. This is just a small selection, but shows some of the variety of her work.
If you've read other great biographies, I'd like to hear your recommendations.
