Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mayors of Boston: Illustrated Epitome of Who the Mayors Have Been and What They Have Done The State Street Trust Company takes pleasure in presenting to you the eighth of the historic brochures that it issues annually. The Company has chosen as its subject this year "The Mayors of Boston." And the purport of this pamphlet has been to present, in a brief but interesting manner, sketches and portraits of those who have been at the helm of Boston´s affairs since the beginning of the city. It has not been possible to give equal space to all of the mayors, because of lack of space and because some of them have been so much more active in public affairs than others. The aim, however, has been to give each mayor the perspective that he deserves, so that those who have been most potent in the direction of city affairs naturally receive fuller treatment than those who have been less potent as mayors. Every effort has been made to make this brochure accurate, and, wherever it has been possible, the compiler has gone to the original source of information. The compiler desires to acknowledge here the courtesy of ex-Mayors Samuel A. Green of the Massachusetts Historical Society, Nathan Matthews, Esq., Edwin Upton Curtis, Esq., Thomas Norton Hart, Esq., Mayor John Francis Fitzgerald, Colonel William A. Gaston of the National Shawmut Bank, Professor Theodore Lyman, and others who have kindly aided in the preparation of the work. It is hoped that this book will be found a fitting companion to the historic brochures already issued by this company.
