About this book
The Life and Genius of Nathaniel Hawthorne is a book by Frank Preston Stearns. The book is inscribed to Emilia Maciel Stearns. The preface says that the simple events of Nathaniel Hawthorne's life have long been before the public.
The text says that John Hathorne described himself in his last will, dated June 27, 1717, as a merchant. The text says that Nathaniel Hawthorne was too clear-sighted to place confidence in the pretended revelations of trance mediums, and not in the least superstitious, but remarkably fond of reading ghost stories. The text says that Hawthorne's wife had not been so happy since their first year at the Old Manse, and that she had an opportunity to indulge her love of artistic decoration in adorning the walls of their little red cottage. The text tells of a Concord judge and an old Free-Soil politician who once attended a religious convention and went to walk together after the business of the day was over.
