War is always a tragedy. There may be a winner of sorts but always a loser. The cost in injuries, death, destruction can never be fully recovered even if glossed over by a military or political elite that proclaims otherwise.

In the novel Little Women, Mr. March goes off to war. But in real life, it was Jo March (Louisa May Alcott herself, an avowed abolitionist) who traveled to Washington to nurse Northern soldiers. This is Alcott’s memoir but she chose to use the pseudonym “Tribulation Periwinkle” to tell her story.

Enjoy this classic tale of the ever relatable and always enchanting March sisters. A unique coming of age story, follow along as the four girls strive to make their family proud while learning who God made them to be and how to grow their strengths and learn from their weaknesses.

Published as a single novel in 1880; the story of Little Women has never lost its appeal. The semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story follows four sisters growing up in rural 19th-century New England, and the independent and outspoken main character is based on the author herself.

From American novelist Louisa May Alcott, aficionado of "blood and thunder tales", “Lost in a Pyramid, or The Curse of the Mummy" is a sensational short story.
