Book Synopsis Old Boston Days & Ways by : Mary Caroline Crawford
Download or read book Old Boston Days & Ways written by Mary Caroline Crawford and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 1924 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The famous happenings of an eventful period in Boston's early history, from the dawn of the Revolution until the town became a city, are here handled with a fresh and vigorous touch. Many little-known incidents are introduced and a large amount of material hitherto the possession of some private family is included. The chapters on the early social and literary life, the establishment of the first theatre and the famous French visitors are of special interest. Miss Crawford's style achieves that happy mingling of historical accuracy and vivacious comment that have made her previous books so successful.
Book Synopsis Historic Powder Houses of New England by : Matthew E. Thomas
Download or read book Historic Powder Houses of New England written by Matthew E. Thomas and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the turbulent history of colonial New England, more than two hundred powder houses were built to store gunpowder, guns and armaments. Even the spark from a metal shoe nail could ignite their contents, so they often sat in remote sections of town. These volatile storehouses played a vital role in earning and preserving American independence. It was, after all, to a powder house in Concord, Massachusetts, that the British army marched in April 1775 to seize colonists' gunpowder. The British were thwarted, and the colonists' defense of the powder house ignited the Revolutionary War. Add to this the duels, murders, public hangings and tragic explosions that checkered the history of these structures, and the reader will discover a fascinating and forgotten aspect of our New England heritage. Using meticulous research, Matthew Thomas narrates the colorful histories of New England's powder houses as he resurrects their historical significance in early American history.

Download or read book How Boston Played written by Stephen Hardy and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Whether consciously molding the city through the construction of public spaces or developing social ties through organizations such as athletic clubs, Bostonians of all classes participated in recreation-based community building, often at cross-purposes. Elite Bostonians, for instance, promoted the establishment of parks as a healthy alternative to unsavory activities, such as drinking and gambling, that they associated with the city's vast new pool of immigrants. They were soon forced to compromise, however, with citizens who were less interested in the rhetoric of moral uplift than in using the parks for competitive athletics and commercial amusements."--BOOK JACKET.
