"Sights from a Steeple (From "Twice Told Tales")" by Nathaniel Hawthorne offers readers a philosophical look at small-town life on the Eastern Seaboard told from the city's center, the church steeple. Told from Hawthorne's very own perspective, the book comments on the everyday lives of the men and women who call New England home and the goings on that allow the ports to thrive during the course of a mere day.
