The Scarlet Letter

Nathaniel Hawthorne was born today in 1804 in Salem, Mass. That is where the Witch Trials took place written so well about in Arthur Millers play The Crucible. The house below is where he lived with his wife Sophia in Concord, Mass. which is also where they both are buried in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery with their daughter Una.
The Scarlet Letter is probably his most famous novel-do read it if you have not yet done so!
