Two Ancient Homes is a historical book written by William Ebenezer Abbot and published in 1888. The book explores the history and architecture of two ancient homes - the Old Manse in Concord, Massachusetts and the Parsonage in West Haven, Connecticut. Abbot provides a detailed account of the construction, design, and inhabitants of these two historic homes, as well as their significance in American history. The Old Manse, built in 1770, was the home of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Nathaniel Hawthorne, and served as a center for intellectual and literary activity during the Transcendentalist movement. The Parsonage, built in 1680, was the home of Reverend James Pierpont and his family, and played a significant role in the founding of Yale University. Abbot's book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, architecture, and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
