The Old Manse, Concord, Massachusetts

 

 

 

You can really feel the life of this place. I went focusing more on the history, but left loving the literature and people of its day. My favorite detail was all of the little verses inscribed into the glass of the windows by Nathanial Hawethorne and his wife. Some of them are painfully tender, such as the one put there after Sophia's miscarriage. Definitely a "must see."
