Omschrijving

The Soldier's Orphans is a novel written by Ann Sophia Stephens and first published in 1866. The story follows the lives of two young siblings, Kate and Harry, who become orphaned when their father, a soldier in the Union Army, dies in battle during the American Civil War. The children are sent to live with their aunt, who is unkind and neglectful towards them. Kate, the elder sibling, takes it upon herself to care for her younger brother and ensure their survival. She is determined to keep their father's memory alive and to honor his sacrifice. Along the way, the siblings encounter a cast of characters, including a kind-hearted doctor and a wealthy benefactor, who help them on their journey.The novel explores themes of family, sacrifice, and resilience in the face of adversity. It also touches on the impact of war on families and the importance of community support. Stephens' writing style is descriptive and emotive, allowing the reader to fully immerse themselves in the world of the Soldier's Orphans. The novel was well-received upon its initial publication and remains a classic of American literature today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
