Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Little Journey to Historic and Picturesque Shrines of Central New England: For Home and School, Intermediate and Upper Grades When reading the poet´s exalted question: "Breathes there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself has said, This is my own, my native land?" we have in our minds altered the lines just enough to ask whether in this broad republic of ours there lives an American boy or girl who has not longed to make a pilgrimage to the corner-stones of the nation, - Plymouth, and old Salem, the witch city, Faneuil Hall, Old South Church, and the hundred and one places of which, as far back in our childhood as we can remember, we have been told and have read. Three places every young American probably hopes some day to see, - Washington, Philadelphia, and even more than either of these, central New England, - for New England is richer in traditions and historic sites than both the other places put together. If we intend our Little Journey to this part of New England to be a thorough one we must make up our minds to "make a summer of it." It will take many days to explore Boston alone, and after that months can very easily be devoted to Massachusetts. We will begin by looking up transportation, and we shall find that to-day nearly all the places we most desire to see are connected trolley, rail or steam with Boston.
