The Battle of Life: A Love Story (better known as The Battle of Life) is a novel by Charles Dickens, first published in 1846. It is the fourth of his five "Christmas Books".
While it is one of Charles Dickens Christmas Books - his annual release of a story just before Christmas - this one breaks the tradition by not being concerned with Christmas. Rather, its subtitle, "A Love Story", reveals more of the plot.
The major events of this book take place on land that once was a battleground. That is just a backdrop for Dickens idea of the real battle of life - finding and winning the right partner, so that life will go on to the next generation.
The people that live there are rather confused in their affections and intentions regarding who should end up with whom. We are thrust into the fight to make things work out, and, happily for a Christmas book, Dickens leads us on to a happy ending.
It is one of the most enjoyable love stories by Charles Dickens.
