Description

"On Picket Duty, and Other Tales" is a 1864 collection of short stories by American author Louisa May Alcott.

Contents include: "On Picket Duty", "The King Of Clubs And The Queen Of Hearts", "The Cross On The Old Church Tower", and "The Death Of John".

Louisa May Alcott (1832 - 1888) was an American short story writer, novelist, and poet most famous for writing the novel "Little Women", as well as its sequels "Little Men" and "Jo's Boys".

She grew up in New England and became associated with numerous notable intellectuals of her time, including Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Henry David Thoreau.

This charming collection of stories are not to be missed by fans of Alcott's work and would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf.

Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.

We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
