Publisher's Synopsis

Christ's Folk in the Apennine: Reminiscences of Her Friends Among the Tuscan Peasantry is a book written by Francesca Alexander and published in 1888. The book is a collection of reminiscences of the author's experiences with the people of the Apennine Mountains in Tuscany, Italy. The author, an artist and writer, spent several years living among the people of the Apennines, and the book is a tribute to the simple and devout lives of the peasants she encountered. The book is divided into chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the peasants' lives, such as their customs, beliefs, and traditions. The author also includes stories of the people she met, including their struggles and triumphs, and their deep faith in Christ. The book is a rich and vivid portrait of life in the Apennine Mountains, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of Tuscany.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
