Begun in 2010, this blog offers analysis and reflection by Susan Bailey on the life, works and legacy of Louisa May Alcott and her family. Susan is an active member and supporter of the Louisa May Alcott Society, the Fruitlands Museum and Louisa May Alcott's Orchard House.
“[Scholar Ray Angelo’s] most recent project (which is ongoing) pinpoints as many of Henry David Thoreau’s place names in Concord and Lincoln, Massachusetts as possible using latitude and longitude coordinates applicable with Google Maps. Entries are supplemented with commentary and all Thoreau journal references. The title of the project is Place Names of Henry David Thoreau in Concord, Massachusetts (and in Lincoln, Massachusetts) & Other Botanical Sites in Concord. This illustrated document is available free online from Angelo’s website. By calling it up, any Thoreau enthusiast can create their own pilgrimage, walking the places where Thoreau walked.”
