Book Description
Rose in Bloom, by Louisa May Alcott, depicts the story of a nineteenth-century girl, Rose Campbell, finding her way in society. It is Alcott's sequel to Eight Cousins. The story begins when Rose returns home from a long trip to Europe. Everyone has changed. As a joke, Rose lines up her seven cousins to take a long look at them, just as they did with her when they first met. The youngest, Jamie, accidentally mentions that the aunts want Rose to marry one of her cousins to keep her fortune in the family. Rose is very indignant, for she has decided ideas about what her future holds. From the beginning, she declares that she can manage her property well on her own and that she will focus on philanthropic work. Charlie has already decided she is marked out for him, with the approval of his mother.

Book Description
Before she wrote Little Women, Louisa May Alcott told this story of a ninteenth-century girl finding her way in society. In this sequel to Eight Cousins, Rose Campbell returns to the "Aunt Hill" after two years of traveling around the world. Suddenly, she is surrounded by male admirers, all expecting her to marry them. But before she marries anyone, Rose is determined to establish herself as an independent young woman. Besides, she suspects that some of her friends like her more her money than for herself. How can Rose tell who her real friends are? Is there anyone she can count on?

Book Description
Eight Cousins was published in 1875 and it is one of the few novels, if not the only one, where Alcott concentrates on one character. The protagonist of Eight Cousins is Rose Campbell. Some of Alcott’s feminist ideals come through in Eight Cousins, as they do to some degree in all her novels. Rose is allowed to choose clothing that is healthier and less restrictive than the typical Victorian garb for girls and women. Alcott also has Rose learn a skill – albeit one that is traditional for women – housekeeping. She learns how to perform domestic chores with skill and efficiency. Rose is transformed from a timid orphan girl to an educated competent young woman in the course of one year. This annotated edition includes a biography and critical essay.

Book Description
Since its publication in 1923, Sir Song Ong Siang's One Hundred Years' History of the Chinese in Singapore has become the standard biographical reference of prominent Chinese in early Singapore, at least in the English language. This fact would have surprised Song who saw himself primarily as a compiler of historical and biographical snippets. The original was not referenced in academic fashion and contained a number of errors. This annotation by the Singapore Heritage Society takes Song's classic text and updates it with detailed annotations of sources that Song himself might have consulted, and includes more recent scholarship on the lives and times of various personalities who are mentioned in the original book. This annotated edition is commissioned by the National Library Board, Singapore and co-published with World Scientific Publishing.

Book Description
The Author is quite aware of the defects of this little story, many of which were unavoidable, as it first appeared serially. But, as Uncle Alec's experiment was intended to amuse the young folks, rather than suggest educational improvements for the consideration of the elders, she trusts that these shortcomings will be overlooked by the friends of the Eight Cousins, and she will try to make amends in a second volume, which shall attempt to show The Rose in Bloom.

Book Description
Rose Campbell has been orphaned and must go live with her uncle, but luckily, she is now near numerous cousins and aunts to help her through this difficult time! Privileged Rose Campbell is a young girl of Scottish descent who is barely 13 when she becomes orphaned and has to live with her Uncle Alec while adjusting to life without her dear father and a mother she never knew. Click here to see the rest of this review When Rose arrives in Boston where Uncle Alec lives, though, he is not there to greet her due to his busy life as a doctor who is often away at sea. Instead, her Aunt Plenty welcomes her but spoils her with strong coffee for breakfast, pills for her supposed anxiety, and too much coddling. Although much family, including numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins are nearby, at first, Rose's only entertainment are her interactions with the housemaid, Phoebe, who is also an orphan. The girls happen upon one another in the great mansion when Rose hears Phoebe's great talent for singing as the young maid goes about her work. Despite the fact that Phoebe is older than Rose by a few years, Rose tutors the girl and teaches her to read and write. When Uncle Alec finally arrives, he goes against Aunt Plenty and the other Campbell women by allowing Rose to dress simply, stop taking her daily pills, begin eating hearty meals that don't include coffee and its ensuing headaches, and start to exercise daily.
