JO'S BOYS is the third book in the "Little Women" trilogy, and a sequel to LITTLE MEN.  The story follows the lives of Jo's "boys," now grown and facing the troubles and challenges of adulthood.

Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was an American novelist.  Born in Massachusetts, Alcott was educated by her father but also received instruction from Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Margaret Fuller, all friends of Alcott's family.  Her best known works, LITTLE WOMEN, LITTLE MEN, and JO'S BOYS, were based on the childhood experiences of Alcott growing up in Concord, Massachusetts.
