About this edition
Sixteen-year-old Flora Hazeley comes home to a house grown careless and cold, and quietly sets about making it a home again. With patience, industry, and no small amount of kindness, she draws her scattered family back together and carries the same warmth into the lives of her neighbours.
First published in 1894, The Hazeley Family is the second novel by Amelia E. Johnson, among the first African American women to write fiction for young readers. Her earlier Clarence and Corinne (1890) is generally recognized as the first work of fiction by an African American published by the American Baptist Publication Society.
A tender, hopeful story of home-making, friendship, and the quiet good that one steady heart can do, presented complete in a new Northlume Library edition, freshly typeset in EB Garamond and Marcellus behind an original mixed media illustration by JVB Atelier Designs.
