Her father Amos Bronson Alcott was a Transcendentalist philosopher as well as an educational reformer. Her mother, Abigail May Alcott, descended from Judge Samuel Sewall, the presiding judge during the Salem witch trials. During the year 1862 Louisa May Alcott traveled to Washington D.C. to aid as a nurse for those injured in the American Civil War. She almost died when she contracted typhoid fever. That combined with mercury poisoning from her medication was sadly the end of her good health. Her career as a writer was spent creating everything from novels to short stories to poems. She was a teacher, a seamstress, and even a domestic servant. Louisa May Alcott passed away on March 6, 1888 in Boston, Massachusetts. But due to her captivating writing style her work will live on through her convincing characters.

An Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving By Louisa May Alcott From An Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving and Other Stories, by Louisa May Alcott, Penguin Books, 1995, ISBN 0-14-600110-9, an inexpensive Penguin 60s paperback. November, 1881 S IXTY YEARS AGO, up among the New Hampshire hills, lived Farmer Bassett, with a houseful of sturdy sons and daughters growing up about him. They were poor in money, but rich in land and love, for the wide acres of wood, corn, and pasture land fed, warmed, and clothed the flock, while mutual patience, affection, and courage made the old farmhouse a very happy home. November had come; the crops were in, and barn, buttery, and bin were overflowing with the harvest that rewarded the summer's hard work. The big kitchen was a jolly place just now, for in the great fireplace roared a cheerful fire; on the walls hung garlands of dried apples, onions, and corn; up aloft from the beams shone crook-necked squashes, juicy hams, and dried venisonfor in those days deer still haunted the deep forests, and hunters flourished. Savory smells were in the air; on the crane hung steaming kettles, and down among the red embers copper saucepans simmered, all suggestive of some approaching feast. A white-headed baby lay in the old blue cradle that had rocked six other babies, now and then lifting his head to look out, like a round, full moon, then subsided to kick and crow contentedly, and suck the rosy apple he had no teeth to bite. Two small boys sat on the wooden settle shelling corn for popping, and picking out the biggest nuts from the goodly store their own hands had gathered in October. Four young girls stood at the long dresser, busily chopping meat, pounding spice, and slicing apples; and the tongues of Tilly, Prue, Roxy, and Rhody went as fast as their hands. Farmer Bassett, and Eph, the oldest boy, were "chorin' 'round" outside, for Thanksgiving was at hand, and all must be in order for that time-honored day.

A nurse during the Civil War 1861-1865, she became one of America's most famous and beloved writer of children's stories. Tired of "providing moral pap for the young," Alcott wrote "A Modern Mephistopheles" in 1877. Once secret, her novel is surprisingly erotic. This perception is reinforced by Alcott's own letters, published as "The Selected Letters of Louisa May Alcott." A self-described "literary spinster," she wrote, "I was born with a boy's nature and have always fought my fight . . . with a boy's spirit." Literature took the place of love, marriage and children. She called her first book in 1854 her "firstborn." The dutiful daughter of a idealistic, influential but mostly impoverished Transcendentalist philosopher, Bronson Alcott, she turned out to be a hardheaded Yankee literary entrepreneur. She wrote to her sister Anna in 1854, "I am grubbing away as usual. I have $11, all of my own earnings - $5 for a story and $4 for a pile of sewing I did for the ladies."

She spent her childhood in Boston and Concord, Massachusetts, where she met Ralph Waldo Emerson and took nature walks with Henry David Thoreau. When her family encountered financial difficulties, Alcott took on any jobs she could find and was eventually able to turn her love for writing into a source of income as several of her poems and short stories appeared in popular magazines. Her first book, Flower Fables, was published in 1855. Then, during the Civil War, Alcott moved to Washington, D.C. to serve as a nurse, where she contracted typhoid as well as mercury poisoning from the medicines used to cure it at the time, from which she would suffer for the rest of her life. However, she was able to turn her experiences in Washington into Hospital Sketches, which was published in 1863. Soon after, her publisher, Thomas Niles, asked her to write “a story for girls.” In two and half months, Alcott wrote Little Women, which was based on her own experiences of growing up with three sisters. It was published in 1868, and became an immediate success.
