Old Ticonderoga, a Picture of the Past by Nathaniel Hawthorne

"Old Ticonderoga, a Picture of the Past" by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a short story written in 1836. Originally published individually, this tale was later included in Hawthorne's final lifetime collection, "The Snow-Image, and Other Twice-Told Tales," released in 1851. The story stands among fifteen pieces that span Hawthorne's career, representing his early work from a period when short tales defined his literary output. As part of a collection Hawthorne himself suggested revealed his "essential traits" through fictional characters rather than confessional prefaces, the piece offers readers a glimpse into his developing artistic vision.
