The Boyhood of Edward MacDowell is a biographical book written by Abbie Farwell Brown that explores the early life of the American composer Edward MacDowell. The book is set in the mid-19th century and follows MacDowell's childhood and adolescence in New York City and France. The story depicts MacDowell's struggles and triumphs as he navigates his way through his family's financial difficulties, his father's alcoholism, and his own passion for music. The book also explores the influence of MacDowell's mother, who was a talented musician herself, and the impact of his studies with famous composers of the time. The story concludes with MacDowell's return to America and his success as a composer and teacher at the New England Conservatory of Music.
