Eight Cousins
language
(Prabhat Prakashan July 29, 2017)
"The Author is quite aware of the defects of this little story; many of which were unavoidable; as it first appeared serially. But; as Uncle Alec’s experiment was intended to amuse the young folks; rather than suggest educational improvements for the consideration of the elders; she trusts that these shortcomings will be overlooked by the friends of the Eight Cousins; and she will try to make amends in a second volume; which shall attempt to show The Rose in Bloom." -Preface by Louisa May Alcott
