Evenings at Donaldson Manor; Or, The Christmas Guest (Esprios Classics)
Maria Jane McIntosh (1803 in Sunbury, Georgia - 25 February 1878, Morristown, New Jersey) was a writer. She began her literary career using the pseudonym "Aunt Kitty" and used contrasting pairs of characters to demonstrate her moral lesson. Under the pen name of "Aunt Kitty" she published a juvenile story entitled "Blind Alice" that at once became popular (1841), and was followed by others (New York, 1843), the whole series being issued in one volume as Aunt Kitty's Tales (1847). On the recommendation of the tragedian Macready, these and many of her subsequent tales were reprinted in London. Her writings are each illustrative of a moral sentiment.
