Louisa may alcott biography pdf download

Louisa was 21 in 1854, when her first book was published, but she was only 16 when she first told the fairy tales in Flower Fables to young Ellen Emerson. Alcott’s last book, A Garland for Girls, was published in 1888, the year of her death.

Like Flower Fables, A Garland for Girls was a collection of fairy tales; these Louisa told to “Lulu”, the child bequeathed to her by May Alcott, her youngest sister. During her 55 years, Louisa produced hundreds of works – plays, stories, novels, poems, journals, and letters.

By her bedside, at her death, was an unfinished story. Below is a partial list of Louisa May Alcott’s works.
