The rugged beauty of Greylock Mountain
What writers have immortalized Greylock Mountain ? The rugged beauty of Greylock Mountain , Massachusetts , has been sung by Oliver Wendell Holmes , Henry David Thoreau , William Cullen Bryant , Nathaniel Haw-thorne, and Fanny Kemble. The summit Of the mountain had for Hawthorne a peculiar fascination. From the streets of Williamstown, from all the ways by which famous "Red Badge of Courage," literary critics hailed him as the writer of the coming great American novel , but he died while still very young , while visiting foreign lands . His remains were brought back to New York and buried within a few miles of his birthplace.
