Hawthorne wrote Doctor Grimshawes Secret in 1861, but he never considered the work finished and did not publish it in his lifetime. His son Julian published it in 1883, It has more autobiographical material than any other work including the character Dr. Grimshawe based on his actual grim guardian.
