Excerpt from Alcott Memoirs
My father's long life can best be described in the words, charity, integrity, courtesy. Through thevicissitudes of an unusually active, cosmopolitan life, through a long period of ill health and phys ical infirmity, up to the last moments of his last illness he never faltered in his thought of others, in his chivalrous bearing and in the kindliness and love that radiated from his personality, and his life was crowned with the best of earth's blessings - the love of all who knew him.

Excerpt from Alcott Memoirs
So much has been written of the famous men and women of New England whose lives compassed approximately the years 1800 to 1870, that little if anything remains to be told. No pretense is here made to supply such deficiency if it exists.
This little book aims at naught else than a presentation of a personal point of view wherein alone lies whatever of originality it may contain. It in no sense presumes to offer original matter save from the angle of individually recorded impression. I offer its pages as a tribute to my father and not as a contribution to the already extensive literature concerning the early literary period of New England. So far as possible dates and facts have been verified, but no exhaustive effort has been made to present historic or biographic matter, the object being to preserve neither people nor events, but my father's memory of them.
