  <abstract>"An Astronomer's Wife: The Biography of Angeline Hall" by Angelo Hall is a biography written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the life of Angeline Hall, detailing her upbringing as a pioneer daughter and her journey towards becoming the wife of an esteemed astronomer. It emphasizes themes of ambition, education, and the challenges faced by women in the 19th century, particularly regarding marriage and societal expectations.  The opening of the biography sets the stage by introducing Angeline’s ancestry and her formative years in a frontier setting. It paints a vivid picture of her family background, featuring her father's struggles with alcoholism and the harsh realities of their environment. Angeline’s early life is marked by resilience and a thirst for knowledge, as she takes on responsibilities at a young age and pursues her education despite familial challenges. Her character is developed through various anecdotes, revealing her sensitive nature and ambitious spirit, laying the groundwork for her eventual marriage to Asaph Hall, a journey filled with both love and struggle that is anticipated in the subsequent chapters.
