"Aunt Jo's Scrap Bag, Volume 2" by Louisa May Alcott is a collection of travel writings and humorous sketches written in the late 19th century. The work details the journey of three women, Amanda, Matilda, and Lavinia, as they set off from Boston to explore Europe, particularly their experiences aboard a ship and travels through France. Alcott captures the adventures, mishaps, and candid reactions of the characters, encapsulating themes of camaraderie, independence, and the joys and trials of exploration." "The opening of the book begins with Amanda enthusiastically planning a trip from Boston to Messina on a fruit ship, which quickly evolves into a series of humorous exchanges revealing the differing attitudes of her companions—Matilda, who is eager for adventure, and Lavinia, who is apprehensive and often unwell. Despite Lavinia's reluctance, the group is buoyed by support from their friends and family. Ultimately, they find themselves on a ship, enduring the challenges of seasickness while amusingly navigating the chaos of travel preparations and experiences, setting the stage for their unfolding adventures in Europe."
