Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Boston: The Place and the People The volumes of biography bearing directly upon Boston history are many. To these and to shorter memoirs of men and women whose lives have been identified with the place, the author is chiefly indebted for whatever flavor of reality his own pages have attained. How many persons and events he has been forced to ignore, or touch but lightly, the reader with the slenderest knowledge of the local records will detect. Others will recognize, as familiar friends, the most bountiful sources of information. The list of them would be long; and the writer must content himself with a special word of acknowledgment to the text and references of the exhaustive Memorial History of Boston, edited by Justin Winsor, and to the shorter narrative, Boston, by the Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge. Finally to Mr. J. P. Quincy and Mr. Edwin M. Bacon, for their valuable comments upon manuscript and proof, a peculiar debt is due.
