His portraits of colonial life reflect his Puritan heritage and offer fascinating profiles of individuals who strive for freedom from social conventions.About the edition: The title's namesake, Old Manse edition, was aptly named by the publisher. The American writer Nathaniel Hawthorne published about twenty sketches and tales during his time in the Old Manse, a notable Georgian house in a notable Concord, Massachusetts neighborhood. The Old Manse witnessed the beginning of the American Revolution, the beginnings of the transcendentalism movement and the lives of great 19th century American writers - home to Ralph Waldo Emerson, then Nathaniel Hawthorne and connected to Henry David Thoreau.
