Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Magazine of New England History, 1891 Tradition, with its romantic vagaries and illusory recitals, quickly obliterates or distorts every vestige of fact, and carries the historian away into a perfect labyrinth of error. A period of time, looking through a vista of two hundred and fifty years, is inappreciable at the present moment, and minutely considered, is but an atom in the chemistry of our thoughts. Occurrences of twenty, ten, or even five years past, cannot be recalled without some boundary-mark to guide our memory. So it is with early events, unless carefully noted, and preserved, they are soon passed into oblivion. Settlements that were planted in the dawn of the colonial period arc now celebrating their anniversaries. The desire for knowledge concerning these early towns and their people, is rapidly growing. Historical data and reminiscences relating to both, are found where least expected; they come up before us like mushrooms in a night, and the end is not yet. The publishing of the first records - torn, faded, and moth-eaten - is doing far more than its greater share in dispelling the myths of tradition in which truth has been buried for generations.
