    It's been a childhood dream of mine to visit that house! One day soon I hope. I always kind of saw myself as a mix of the sisters. lol

    Loved this! Even though we couldn't see inside the house your descriptions and enthusiasm were just as great!

    My mother gave that book for Christmas one year & I loved it so much & I purchased all the dvd of this movie. I actually have it out right now on my tv stand. I watch it at least once a week👍😀

    This was so interesting! I just read Little Women a few weeks ago for the first time, and didn't know it was written about them. I just spent a while looking stuff up on Wikipedia about them. What a strange life they had. Thanks for sharing!

      +Emily Boone The Alcott's were such an interesting family - I definitely want to read more about them. Thanks for watching!

    Pretty cool ! Shame you couldn't show the inside of the house. Got a quick flash of the Hawthorne house, loved the wind around porch. Mass. has some great historical places. I regret that we didn't take more time exploring instead of hitting up the baseball games .( my Tigers were in town ) . We went to go to a toy auction, and again for the Big E. Thanks for sharing, your the best !.......Rhino

      +Rhino Rinehart wasn't the porch beautiful? I'd love to be able to visit Hawthorne House another time!

      +Mandy Harris Thanks, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I love doing travel vlogs, especially when we're visiting bookish locations! 👍

    I don’t understand no videos or photos. I’ve been to so many historic homes and never ran into any restrictions like that. Since I live in Hawaii and I’m unlikely to make a trip to concord Massachusetts, I would love to see a video tour of the house. Maybe that’s what it is about… that they sell a video tour on DVD or something?
    Oh my gosh… just realized how old this video is.

    I had never heard of the "mood" pillow. My middle daughter and I began joking about getting my oldest daughter a "mood" pillow (she probably wouldn't think it funny).

    • @BookishPrincess
      @BookishPrincess  8 років тому

      Haha, I'm sure most families could do with a mood pillow every now and then. 😉

      Thanks! 😊 I loved seeing Manchester and Bath through your literary vlogs - bookish travels are the best!

    What a neat trip!! Do they still keep up the garden plots in the warmer seasons? Everything looked pretty gray in the cold there :)

    • @BookishPrincess
      @BookishPrincess  8 років тому

      +Elizabeth Tyree I believe they do - I'll bet it's even more beautiful when everything is green!

    • @SoulStainedInk
      @SoulStainedInk 8 років тому

      That would be so neat! I'd love to take a tour in the spring...as long as I took an allergy pill first because can you imagine the pollen?? Phew

  • @audreybrown6440
    @audreybrown6440 5 років тому +1

    Love your video. The reason no pics and video in such places is probably because it would be on UA-cam. People wouldn't pay to see it and that's how they pay for the upkeep on the house...

    Not many there, you’d expect it to be crowded like Haworth

    How come you can't take pictures of the inside of the house? I don't think I caught the explanation.

    • @BookishPrincess
      @BookishPrincess  7 років тому

      It was just the museum rule - some museums don't let you take photos or videos of the exhibits.

    • @hayleydoesthings
      @hayleydoesthings 7 років тому

      musicaltheatergeek79 exposure to flash photography over time can damage the artifacts. Even if you tell people not to use flash, some still will, so it's easier just to have a "no photography" policy across the board.

    Does it cost money to tour it? I only live a few hours away. I could make a day trip.

    • @BookishPrincess
      @BookishPrincess  7 років тому

      Yes, you did have to buy a ticket to go inside! I think it was about $10 or so...

    Is this the house she grew up in?

      @bertam.7726 3 роки тому

      No, the family moved several times, Louisa moved to this house when she was 25.
