"We count by changes and events within us. Not by years." Set in a small village, which stands on the site of a historic skirmish, "The Battle of Life" follows the romantic trials and tribulations of two sisters, Grace and Marion. All the while, they are harangued by their father, Dr Jeddler, who seems to treat life as a joke. With love triangles, false elopements and noble sacrifices, this novella explores the idea that each person must face their own, personal battle and decide whether to resolve it with or without incurring casualties. Despite the themes, this love story is peppered with humour and optimism. Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was an English author, social critic, and philanthropist. He is the author of 15 novels, five novellas, and hundreds of short stories. Among his most famous works are 'Oliver Twist' (1839), 'A Christmas Carol' (1843), and 'Great Expectations' (1861). Several of his books have been adapted for film, with characters such as Jacob Marley in 'A Christmas Carol' played by Alec Guinness.

ONCE upon a time, it matters little when, and in stalwart England, it matters little where, a fiercebattle was fought. It was fought upon a long summer day when the waving grass was green. Many awild flower formed by the Almighty Hand to be a perfumed goblet for the dew, felt its enamelledcup fill high with blood that day, and shrinking dropped. Many an insect deriving its delicate colorfrom harmless leaves and herbs, was stained anew that day by dying men, and marked its frightenedway with an unnatural track. The painted butterfly took blood into the air upon the edges of itswings. The stream ran red. The trodden ground became a quagmire, whence, from sullen poolscollected in the prints of human feet and horses' hoofs, the one prevailing hue still lowered andglimmered at the sun.Heaven keep us from a knowledge of the sights the moon beheld upon that field, when, coming upabove the black line of distant rising-ground, softened and blurred at the edge by trees, she rose intothe sky and looked upon the plain, strewn with upturned faces that had once at mothers' breastssought mothers' eyes, or slumbered happily. Heaven keep us from a knowledge of the secretswhispered afterwards upon the tainted wind that blew across the scene of that day's work and thatnight's death and suffering! Many a lonely moon was bright upon the battle-ground, and many a starkept mournful watch upon it, and many a wind from every quarter of the earth blew over it, beforethe traces of the fight were worn away.They lurked and lingered for a long time, but survived in little things, for Nature, far above the evilpassions of men, soon recovered Her serenity, and smiled upon the guilty battle-ground as she haddone before, when it was innocent. The larks sang high above it, the swallows skimmed and dippedand flitted to and fro, the shadows of the flying clouds pursued each other swiftly, over grass andcorn and turnip-field and wood, and over roof and church-spire in the nestling town among thetrees, away into the bright distance on the borders of the sky and earth, where the red sunsets faded.Crops were sown, and grew up, and were gathered in; the stream that had been crimsoned, turned awatermill; men whistled at the plough; gleaners and haymakers were seen in quiet groups at work;sheep and oxen pastured; boys whooped and called, in fields, to scare away the birds; smoke rosefrom cottage chimneys; sabbath bells rang peacefully; old people lived and died; the timid creaturesof the field, and simple flowers of the bush and garden, grew and withered in their destined terms: 3and all upon the fierce and bloody battle-ground, where thousands upon thousands had been killedin the great fight.

The Battle of Life: A Love Story is a novella is the fourth of his five "Christmas Books", coming after The Cricket on the Hearth and followed by The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain. The setting is an English village that stands on the site of an historic battle. Some characters refer to the battle as a metaphor for the struggles of life, hence the title. Battle is the only one of the five Christmas Books that has no supernatural or explicitly religious elements. (One scene takes place at Christmas time, but it is not the final scene.) The story bears some resemblance to The Cricket on the Hearth in two respects: it has a non-urban setting, and it is resolved with a romantic twist. It is even less of a social novel than is Cricket. As is typical with Dickens, the ending is a happy one. It is one of Dickens's lesser-known works and has never attained any high level of popularity – a trait it shares among the Christmas Books with The Haunted Man.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside The Battle of Life - A Love Story: Look inside the book: Snitchey," said Alfred, "there are quiet victories and struggles, great sacrifices of self, and noble acts of heroism, in it-even in many of its apparent lightnesses and contradictions-not the less difficult to achieve, because they have no earthly chronicle or audience; done every day in nooks and corners, and in little households, and in men's and women's hearts-any one of which might reconcile the sternest man to such a world, and fill him with belief and hope in it, though two-fourths of its people were at war, and another fourth at law; and that's a bold word." ...said the Doctor, "I am too old to36 be converted, even by my friend Snitchey here, or my good spinster sister, Martha Jeddler; who had what she calls her domestic trials ages ago, and has led a sympathising life with all sorts of people ever since; and who is so much of your opinion (only she's less reasonable and more obstinate, being a woman), that we can't agree, and seldom meet. ..."I haven't been, I hope, a very unjust steward in the execution of my trust," pursued the Doctor; "but I am to be, at any rate, formally discharged, and40 released, and what not, this morning; and here are our good friends Snitchey and Craggs, with a bagful of papers, and accounts, and documents, for the transfer of the balance of the trust fund to you (I wish it was a more difficult one to dispose of, Alfred, but you must get to be a great man and make it so), and other drolleries of that sort, which are to be signed, sealed, and delivered." About Charles Dickens, the Author: Righteous anger stemming from his own situation and the conditions under which working-class people lived became major themes of his works, and it was this unhappy period in his youth to which he alluded in his favourite, and most autobiographical, novel, David Copperfield:25 'I had no advice, no counsel, no encouragement, no consolation, no assistance, no support, of any kind, from anyone, that I can call to mind, as I hope to go to heaven ' ...Many were drawn from real life: Mrs Nickleby is based on his mother, though she didn't recognize herself in the portrait,89 just as Mr Micawber is constructed from aspects of his father's 'rhetorical exuberance' 90 Harold Skimpole in Bleak House, is based on James Henry Leigh Hunt: his wife's dwarfish chiropodist recognized herself in Miss Mowcher in David Copperfield.
