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 living among the Tuscan peasants in the Apennine Mountains of Italy. Alexander describes the daily lives and customs of the people she lived among, detailing their religious beliefs, folklore, and traditional practices. She also shares stories of the many individuals she met, including priests, farmers, and craftsmen, who all left a lasting impression on her.Throughout the book, Alexander emphasizes the strong faith and devotion of the Tuscan peasants to their Catholic religion, as well as their deep connection to the natural world around them. She also reflects on the beauty of the landscape and the unique culture of the region.Overall, Christ's Folk in the Apennine provides a detailed and intimate portrait of the rural Tuscan way of life in the late 19th century, as seen through the eyes of a foreigner who became deeply immersed in the local community.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
