Unique Elements Historical Context - Detailed 19th Century Historical Map A Brilliant Literary Classic by HELEN HUNT JACKSON Ramona by author Helen Hunt Jackson is a book of literary fiction first published in 1884 in the United States. Sneak Peak “We have flattered ourselves by inventing proverbs of comparison in matter of blindness,--"blind as a bat," for instance. It would be safe to say that there cannot be found in the animal kingdom a bat, or any other creature, so blind in its own range of circumstance and connection, as the greater majority of human beings are in the bosoms of their families. Tempers strain and recover, hearts break and heal, strength falters, fails, and comes near to giving way altogether, every day, without being noted by the closest lookers-on.” Synopsis This is a story of genuine love tested, and it is considered one of the best ethical novels of the nineteenth century. This compelling novel, set in Old California, illustrates the existence of the fading Spanish order, the persecution of tribe American villages, and, inevitably, the horrific entry of white immigrants. Ramona, an illegitimate orphan, grows up as the tyrannical Senora Moreno's ward. Her passion for Alessandro, a Native American, however, causes her to be an outcast and fugitive.
