Just a little off Boston Common stands a historic building on the foundations of Anne and William Hutchinson's house. Formerly the Old Corner Bookstore, before that it was home to Ticknor & Fields, arguably the most important publisher of early American literature, and Hawthorne's publisher, who channels Anne Hutchinson time and again in his masterwork, The Scarlet Letter.
