Book excerpt: Boston's South Shore is bracketed by two of the oldest settlements in North America: Plymouth to the south, where the Pilgrims landed in 1620, and of course Boston to the north, where the Puritans began building their "city on a hill" a few years later. And there's a whole lot of history in between, as well. As Amy Whorf McGuiggan writes in her foreword to this beautiful portfolio of South Shore images, "The history of our nation-from first footings to Revolutionary War to clipper ships to immigration-is recorded in the annals of South Shore towns. It is a place, still, of ancient Native American names and charming monikers that recall gentler times. It is a place of manicured town greens with whitewashed bandstands, Fourth of July parades, New England-style town meetings, stately old meeting houses and clapboarded Cape Cod and colonial houses surrounded by picket fences. It is a place of wandering roads fashioned from the old byways that had been cow paths, a place where it is easy to imagine how things looked a century ago. It is a place of natural beauty: beaches and harbor islands, pine forests, pristine lakes and cranberry bogs." The South Shore does not have the rocky, storm-tossed coast of Boston's North Shore nor did it have, until recently, the social cachet (some might say snobbery) of the opposite coast. But in Greg Derr's images, collected over two decades of covering the area and its people for the region's leading newspaper, the South Shore is clearly a collection of fascinating communities, each of them unique, with a common heritage to treasure.

Book Synopsis A People's Guide to Greater Boston by : Joseph Nevins
Download or read book A People's Guide to Greater Boston written by Joseph Nevins and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Herein, we bring you to sites that have been central to the lives of 'the people' of Greater Boston over four centuries. You'll visit sites associated with the area's indigenous inhabitants and with the individuals and movements who sought to abolish slavery, to end war, challenge militarism, and bring about a more peaceful world, to achieve racial equity, gender justice, and sexual liberation, and to secure the rights of workers. We take you to some well-known sites, but more often to ones far off the well-beaten path of the Freedom Trail, to places in Boston's outlying neighborhoods. We also visit sites in numerous other municipalities that make up the Greater Boston region-from places such as Lawrence, Lowell and Lynn to Concord and Plymouth. The sites to which we do 'travel' include homes given that people's struggles, activism, and organizing sometimes unfold, or are even birthed in many cases in living rooms and kitchens. Trying to capture a place as diverse and dynamic as Boston is highly challenging. (One could say that about any 'big' place.) We thus want to make clear that our goal is not to be comprehensive, or to 'do justice' to the region. Given the constraints of space and time as well as the limitations of knowledge--both our own and what is available in published form--there are many important sites, cities, and towns that we have not included. Thus, in exploring scores of sites across Boston and numerous municipalities, our modest goal is to paint a suggestive portrait of the greater urban area that highlights its long-contested nature. In many ways, we merely scratch the region's surface--or many surfaces--given the multiple layers that any one place embodies. In writing about Greater Boston as a place, we run the risk of suggesting that the city writ-large has some sort of essence. Indeed, the very notion of a particular place assumes intrinsic characteristics and an associated delimited space. After all, how can one distinguish one place from another if it has no uniqueness and is not geographically differentiated? Nonetheless, geographer Doreen Massey insists that we conceive of places as progressive, as flowing over the boundaries of any particular space, time, or society; in other words, we should see places as processual or ever-changing, as unbounded in that they shape and are shaped by other places and forces from without, and as having multiple identities. In exploring Greater Boston from many venues over 400 years, we embrace this approach. That said, we have to reconcile this with the need to delimit Greater Boston--for among other reasons, simply to be in a position to name it and thus distinguish it from elsewhere"--
