FIRST EDITION FIRST PRINTING OF THIS EARLY AND QUITE SCARCE HAWTHORNE TITLE RARELY ENCOUNTERED IN FULL FIRST STATE FORMAT. Hawthorne spent three years in the Old Manse in Concord. The Old Manse is a historic manse famous for its American literary associations. It is now owned and operated as a nonprofit museum by the Trustees of Reservations. In 1842 the American writer Nathaniel Hawthorne rented the Old Manse for $100 a year. He moved in with his wife transcendentalist Sophia Peabody. Prior to their arrival at the Manse Henry David Thoreau created a vegetable garden for the couple. The Hawthornes lived in the house for three years. Previously the manse had been home to Ralph Waldo Emerson.<br> MOSSES FROM AN OLD MANSE is the best and most important of the three literary collections Hawthorne published during his lifetime. Many of the tales are allegories and as in much of Hawthorne's best works focus on the negative side of human nature. Herman Melville a close friend of Hawthorne noted this aspect in his review of it-- "This black conceit pervades him through and through. You may be witched by his sunlight—transported by the bright gildings in the skies he builds over you; but there is the blackness of darkness beyond; and even his bright gildings but fringe and play upon the edges of thunder-clouds.

FIRST EDITION AND PRINTING OF HAWTHORNE'S WRITINGS ON ENGLAND A WORK WHICH INCLUDES SOME OF THE AUTHOR'S BEST NONFICTION WORK .<br> The years which Hawthorne passed in England were outwardly the most successful in worldly prosperity the most abundant and in other respects among the happiest of his life; forming in the autumn of his career a sort of counterpoise to the idyllic period spent at the Old Manse. Of these years--from the spring of 1853 to June of 1860 excepting a part of 1858 and 1859 which interval was chiefly spent in Italy--"Our Old Home" was the literary outcome. Much of the material composing the sketches in this volume occurs in embryonic form in the "English Note-Books" which were then still veiled from publicity; but various elements and touches of fancy were supplied by the author's mood or memory at the instant of writing. His impressions of England outlined in the "Note-Books" and scattered at random through many pages here assume a connected and artistic shape. Ticknor and Fields hardcover
