Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Local Loiterings: And Visits in the Vicinity of Boston The reader who may be inclined to keep my company whilst in this series of papers I shall go through the lengths and breadths of this populous city, must not expect to be entertained by startling tales or novel incidents. I have no ´Mysteries´ of Boston to relate, no melodramatic doings to chronicle. I am a plain man, and shall have to do with plain matters, with common facts. If, therefore, the reader be willing, on these conditions, to ´lend me his ears,´ well; but if records of every-day subjects, and chronicles of common things, possess no interest for him, we had better at once pursue different paths, than run the risk of falling out on our journey. And it is really wonderful how many objects of interest lie in and about our daily paths, and how much amusement and instruction we might derive from them, if we would but slightly exercise our reflective faculties; we are too apt to fly in search of excitement to far-away scenes, forgetting that our sympathies may be more profitably enlisted by objects long familiar and near at hand.
