Hospital Sketches

In the words of Louisa May Alcott herself : "These sketches taken from letters hastily written in the leisure moments of a very busy life make no pretension to literary merit, but are simply a brief record of one person's hospital experience. As such they are republished, with their many faults but partially amended lest in retouching they should lose whatever force or freshness the inspiration of the time may have given them."

This edition will please every lover of classic literature.
