Louisa on the Front Lines

Samantha Seiple

“Louisa on the Front Lines is a swift-moving, engrossing narrative.” ―The Wall Street Journal



“A rich, enlightening tale . . . inspirational.” ―The Washington Post

“There’s a beautiful humanness in Seiple’s descriptions of Alcott…Readers will discover in these pages an author as vibrant as her writings, and find themselves returning to her work with fresh eyes. Alcott scholars will encounter a liveliness if not substantive new information.” ―(STARRED) Library Journal

“A beautifully crafted portrait of what life was like for Alcott during the war… a brilliant story.” ―Civil War Times
