    • Jo. The second-oldest March sister Alcott based on herself. She was an avid runner and tree-climber until the Civil War, when she served as a nurse and contracted typhoid pneumonia.
    • Meg. The oldest March sister is based on Alcott’s real-life oldest sister Anna Bronson Alcott. She, too, was a rule-follower who accepted the ideals of Victorian womanhood.
    • Amy. The youngest March sister is based on the youngest Alcott sister Abigail May, who went by her middle name (Amy spelled backwards). She had a passion for fine arts and fine clothes, but longed for the opportunity to learn more.
    • Beth. The second-youngest March sister is based on Alcott’s sister by the same name, Elizabeth. She was shy in real life, and Alcott apparently talked about her the least in her diaries.
