Three first editions of Hawthorne’s final posthumously published works, including the Wakeman-Parrish-Parsons copy of Septimus Felton. Fields commissioned Dolliver Romance for serial publication in Atlantic Monthly in the summer of 1863, unaware that Hawthorne was struggling to complete various manuscripts and had discarded many others. By that autumn, Hawthorne’s health was rapidly deteriorating and he was acutely aware of his diminishing ability to write. These works demonstrate Hawthorne’s final effort to develop the subjects he first introduced in the discarded manuscripts (Mather Jackson, 332). See Edward Arthur Mather Jackson’s Nathaniel Hawthorne: a Modest Man (1940).
