Hannah Alane | 662 comments Okay, here's a stumper (hopefully πŸ˜†) :

Which author traveled to the Dutch Republic in 1782 as an ambassador in hopes to gain a loan to help secure American independence from France and pressure Britain into peace.

It's really interesting! I definitely think it's something you would love. I'm learning things about Hawthorne that I didn't know. Not that I knew much, since I've not read much on him. πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ
