Mrs. Annie Adams Fields has incredible influence on literary decisions at Ticknor & Fields Publishing House (forerunner to Houghton Mifflin). Counting amongst her friends: Nathaniel Hawthorne, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Annie witnessed Victorian revelry at the height of Transcendentalism, along with a nation’s despair, during the onslaught of Civil War–all from her home; The Waterside Museum at 148 Charles Street, Beacon Hill, Boston. Now Mrs. Fields offers her guests intimate secrets and extraordinary observations, including her years with Sarah Orne Jewett in a Boston Marriage. Join Mrs. Fields! She is a consummate hostess. There will be laughter, disbelief, awe, and even blushing cheeks, as you hear the tantalizing tales of this preeminent literary scout and accomplished writer! (Based on Authors and Friends (1896) and Memories of a Hostess (1922).)
