Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters and Diary of John Rowe, Boston Merchant 1759-1762 1764-1779 These extracts from the Letters and Diary of my great-great-uncle, John Rowe, are printed, because it seemed that such valuable records of life in Boston nearly one hundred and fifty years ago, ought to be put beyond the possibility of loss; and also, that they might interest a larger public, than that which listened to Mr Pierce´s paper, and the very few who have had the privilege of reading the original manuscript. Exeter Place called for his early home in England, Rowe Place and Rowe´s Wharf, bring his name down to the Boston of to-day, and there are many living who remember Rowe Street, and the last of Rowe´s Pasture. I wish to thank Dr Joseph Rowe Webster, Mr C. W. Amory, Mrs Charles Amory, Miss Sutermeister, and Messrs Houghton, Mifflin & Co. for permission to copy photographs of family portraits and houses, and the Massachusetts Historical Society for allowing me to reprint from their "Proceedings" parts of Mr Pierce´s paper, all of which add greatly to the value of the book.
