This volume contains the second part of Nathaniel Hawthorne's collection of short stories, "Mosses from an Old Manse" (first published in 1846). Most of the tales are allegories and, as with many of Hawthorne's short stories, concentrate on the negative side of human nature. These masterful and thought-provoking tales will appeal to those with a love of the short story form, and are not to be missed by fans and collectors of Hawthorne's seminal work. The stories of this collection include: "The New Adam and Eve", "Egotism, Or, The Bosom Serpent", "The Christmas Banquet", "Drowne's Wooden Image", "The Intelligence Office", "P.'s Correspondence", "Earth's Holocaust", "Passages from a Relinquished Work", etcetera. Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804 - 1864) was an American novelist and short story writer. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.
