'Jo’s Boys' is a 1886 novel written by an author Louisa May Alcott. The last book in her popular 'Little Women' series and sequel to 'Little Men', it revolves around Jo’s now-grown children who find themselves faced with all the problems of adult life. This moving tale of maturity and loss of innocence constitutes a must-read for those who have read and enjoyed 'Little Women' or any other works by this author. Louisa May Alcott (1832 - 1888) was an American short story writer, novelist, and poet most famous for writing the novel 'Little Women' and its sequels. 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. Other notable works by this author include: 'An Old-Fashioned Girl' (1886), 'Eight Cousins' (1869), and 'A Long Fatal Love Chase' (1875). 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.
