Nathaniel Hawthorne 
Great Stone Face [PDF ebook] 
And Other Tales of the White Mountains

This collection of tales is an engaging compendium of Hawthorne’s short stories, including many set in and around the writer’s native New England. The title story is a charming fable-like tale that takes as its focus a long-famous geological feature in the New Hampshire mountains (the face-like granite protrusion collapsed in 2003).
