The New Adam and Eve Nathaniel Hawthorne

True Stories from History and Biography is the 1843 novel by the author Nathaniel Hawthorne, made famous by the novel the Scarlet Letter, and other dark tales and horror stories. In writing this ponderous tome, the author's desire has been to describe the eminent characters and remarkable events of our annals, in such a form and style, that the YOUNG might make acquaintance with them of their own accord. For this purpose, while ostensibly relating the adventures of a Chair, he has endeavored to keep a distinct and unbroken thread of authentic history.
