Excerpt from Days and Ways in Old Boston Impressed with the interesting changes that had taken place in Boston and its business methods within the last two generations, we began some time since the preparation of a brief pamphlet calling attention to some of these changes which had occurred during the business life of Mr. R. H. Stearns, who founded this business in 1847 and died in 1909. It was our intention to distribute gratuitously this pamphlet (partly advertising and partly historical) among our customers. As the work progressed, however, we found so much of interest which had occurred in the year '47 and so much of Boston history which was connected with our present location, that the original plan of a small booklet was abandoned. Moreover, competent judges advised us that the material thus collected was of more than passing importance - most of it indeed being of real historic value - which could not fail to interest a much wider circle of readers. We therefore decided to eliminate the advertising matter (unless occasional reference in signed articles or illustrations showing some of the changes which have taken place at the historic corner where this business is now located could be so construed) and to print in permanent book form the material which had been collected. This volume is the result. This volume is the result. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Old Boston Days Ways: From the Dawn of the Revolution Until the Town Became a City Almost of necessity a town is a different thing, and has a social life quite distinct, from a city. On its political side it is endowed with color and individuality, from the very fact that its humblest inhabitant may, at town meet ing, raise his voice to oppose the motion of the richest and most renowned man in the com munity. And, on the social side, it possesses a simplicity of interests, a delightful neighborli ness, and a quality of charming intimacy which may never be claimed by a city. So, in this book, which takes up where my St. Botolph's Town dropped it, the story of Boston's Share in the struggle for in dependence, I have stopped just short of the time when we blossomed into a munici pality and indulged in a mayor and aldermen. The end of Boston's life as a town seemed to me really the end of an era and I thought I could paint a better picture of life and manners here, during the period which followed the Revolution, if I did not venture far into the history of the nineteenth century.

Excerpt from Romantic Days in Old Boston the Story of the City and of Its People During the Nineteenth Century We Americans have a curious habit of dating back our heroes and of refusing the stamp of authentic valor - at least in our histories - to any act of moral or physical courage which has happened since the. Revolution. John Hancock we glibly dub "patriot" though he never fought at all, and in many ways is admittedly a man of pretty small calibre. It seems never to have occurred to those in charge of the spiritual sustenance of our youth that, beside William Lloyd Garrison, Hancock shrinks to really pitiful proportions. Webster's "Bunker Hill Oration" we read, to be sure, but the emphasis is always put upon the Bunker Hill rather than upon the Webster. And I never heard the name of Wendell Phillips pronounced during the years in which I prepared, in the Boston public schools, for college.

Excerpt from Old Boston Museum Days IN writing this little volume, I have lived over again the days of the Old Museum, and as I recalled the faces and forms that peopled the stage of that famous old playhouse, I must confess to moments of sorrow recompensed by hours of joy. I doubt that even the most phil osophical spirit, with never a tear or a regret for the past, could delve into its recesses as I have done, without a longing for the Old Mu seum days that are gone. Yet the memory of those days will leave, for all time, something of value to remember and cherish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Dickens Days in Boston: A Record of Daily Events The accidental discovery of some unreported incidents in the visit of Mr. And Mrs. Charles Dickens to Boston, in 1842, led to a thorough search through old news papers, diaries, letters, reports, magazines, etc., and the attempt to compile a diary of each day and night that Charles Dickens spent in Boston: a diary that is really true because it is mostly written by people who were present and who saw and heard what they set down.

Excerpt from Old Boston, Vol. 1 of 3: A Romance Tue romance of my great-grandmother! That was what during all my youthful days I thought about, dreamed over, wondered at. In childhood so little suffices to create a mystery. A locked door, a darkened room, a lowered voice, and immediately all the undeveloped love for the unknown leaps to the fore, the more eagerly because it has so little to feed upon, and because all the emotions are, as yet, fresh and unplayed upon.

Excerpt from Old Boston in Colonial Days; Or St. Botoph's Town: From the Time Blackstone, the First Settler, to the Outbreak of the American Revolution The truth is that it is biography rather than history which really allures me; history seems to me worse than useless unless it illus trates the times of which it writes as those times affected the lives of its men and women. A book like this has no justification, to my mind, save as it makes us understand just a little better the part New England, in the per son of its chief town, has played in the mighty drama of nations made up of thinking, feeling men and women.

Excerpt from The Old Boston Post Road Meanwhile, there had been material progress in agri cultural lines. As long as the settlements were along the coast, communication and interchange of commodities were easy by means of vessels; but the settlements began to grow inland, and roads became necessary to maintain communication; and roads are great factors in develop ment and civilization. Several such roads were developed from the Indian trails leading from Boston, so that in time there came to be two well defined post roads from Boston to New York, and a third developed later 1n the days of the turnpikes.
