Josiah Allen's Wife is a hilarious and touching portrait of life in rural America, as seen through the eyes of Samantha Allen, a feisty and opinionated housewife. In this installment, Samantha travels to Philadelphia for the Centennial Exhibition, where she encounters a host of colorful characters and engages in a variety of escapades. Along the way, she offers her trademark blend of wit, wisdom, and homespun philosophy. With its gentle humor and keen observations of human nature, Josiah Allen's Wife is a classic of American literature.
