Summary

** "An Astronomer's Wife: The Biography of Angeline Hall" by Angelo Hall is a story from the early 1900s about Angeline Hall's life, starting with her tough childhood as the daughter of pioneers and how she became the wife of a well-known astronomer. The book looks at ideas like wanting to do well, learning, and the difficulties women faced in the 1800s, especially when it came to marriage and what society expected of them. The beginning of the book describes Angeline's family history and her early years living in a rough environment. It shows her family situation, including her father's problems with alcohol and the difficult realities of their life. Angeline's young life is shown as one of strength and a desire to learn, as she takes on responsibilities early and works to get an education despite the problems in her family. The book shows her personality through stories that reveal her caring nature and ambitious attitude, setting the scene for her eventual marriage to Asaph Hall, a relationship that the book suggests will be full of both love and challenges. **
