~Realism & Naturalism~

  With their father away fighting in the Civil War, Joe, Meg, Beth and Amy grow up with their mother in somewhat reduced circumstances.

The second volume was released on April 14, 1869 with a response of more than 13,000 copies sold immediately.  Alcott's story of Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy had launched her into celebrity status and helped to alleviate the family's financial problems.
