The Marble Faun, inscribed by Pierce

Nathaniel Hawthorne, 1860

HAWTHORNE, Nathaniel (1804-1864). The Marble Faun: or, the Romance of Monte Beni. Boston: Ticknor and Fields, 1860.



A presentation copy of the first edition of Hawthorne's Marble Faun, inscribed by Pierce: "For Miss Dayton from her friend Franklin Pierce July 31, 1860 Portsmouth N.H." A further testament to the enduring relationship between Pierce and Hawthorne, who had met as young men at Bowdoin College and would remain lifelong friends. This copy with a bookplate bearing the Pepperell family coat of arms. Sir William Pepperell (1696-1759), a merchant and soldier from Kittery, Maine, was the subject of Hawthorne's 1833 eponymous essay celebrating his military victory at Louisbourg during King George's War. BAL 7621.



Two volumes, octavo (182 x 115mm). Half-title, 16 pp. of ads at rear. Original brown cloth (rubbed). Provenance: Pepperell family (armorial bookplate) – Miss Dayton (inscription).
