Q: Hello, I have a Nathaniel Hawthorne book which I believe it was published by Henry Altemus in Philadelphia. I attached photos of the book from the outside and some inside. I really just wanted to know a little bit more about the book, the history and what the value of the book is.

A: Your book is a reprint and is part of the Vademecum Series.

More about your 1898 book can be found here: http://henryaltemus.com/series/series179.htm

It only has nominal value.
