Book Description
This carefully crafted ebook: "THE MARCH FAMILY TRILOGY: Their Wedding Journey, A Hazard of New Fortunes & Their Silver Wedding Journey" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. In his first novel Howells introduces to us the March Family from Boston, a newly married couple. The story follows Basil and Isabel March on their honeymoon journey to New York and Hudson River, then west to Niagara Falls and finally to Quebec and Montreal. The story continues in A Hazard of New Fortunes when Marches, now with children, move from Boston to New York. The book, which takes place in late 19th century New York City, tells the story of Basil March, who finds himself in the middle of a dispute between his employer, a self-made millionaire and his old German teacher, an advocate for workers' rights. Finally, the story of the March family is completed in Their Silver Wedding Journey where Howells follows Basil and Isabel on their trip to Germany. William Dean Howells (1837-1920) was an American realist author, literary critic, and playwright. Nicknamed "The Dean of American Letters", he was particularly known for his tenure as editor of the Atlantic Monthly as well as his own prolific writings, including the Christmas story "Christmas Every Day", and the novels The Rise of Silas Lapham and A Traveler from Altruria. Howells is known to be the father of American realism, and a denouncer of the sentimental novel. He was the first American author to bring a realist aesthetic to the literature of the United States. His stories of Boston upper crust life set in the 1850s are highly regarded among scholars of American fiction.

Book Description
It’s going to be the wedding of the century… or a complete disaster. Arcadia Shabeaux never imagined she’d be walking down the aisle—especially not in a dress that’s been let out, taken in, and stitched together more times than she can count. But she’s determined to make it work, even if the road to wedded bliss has been paved with cake catastrophes, camo-themed disasters, and one too many bottles of Aunt Mavis’s homemade moonshine punch. With just days to go before she says “I do” to her Strippendale groom, Cyrus, Arcadia finds herself drowning in a sea of wedding mishaps and family antics. From the fight over camo decorations to her ex-boyfriend-turned-friend Armand showing up with a swamp buggy for a bridal ride, it’s a miracle she hasn’t lost her mind—or her dress. And just when she thinks things can’t get any wilder, Aunt Mavis decides to give a Maid of Honor speech that no one will ever forget. But despite all the chaos, there’s love in the air, and Arcadia can’t help but feel that this crazy, mismatched wedding is exactly the kind of happily ever after she was meant for. After all, it wouldn’t be a Shabeaux affair without a little bit of mayhem, a whole lot of love, and some Southern flair to tie it all together. Will Arcadia make it to the altar in one piece? Or will the most unpredictable wedding in Lake Dennis history prove to be too much, even for her? Full of humor, heart, and a touch of Southern charm, A Shabby Wedding is a delightful, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy about family, friendship, and finding joy in the messiest of moments.
