Sobre este artículo
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1975. The hardcover version was printed in 1973, this softcover edition is a First Edition Thus. 4to size pictorial softcover; 129 pages with black and white illustrations throughout plus two sections of color photographs From introduction: "The purpose of this photographic essay is to convey the visual impact of Boston as it is now; but this leaves, as always, the problem of the pages between the pictures... To understand more fully the distance traveled in the quality of our urban life we might find it profitable to look at how earlier generation of our townspeople lived. For this purpose we are going to avail ourselves of figures like Thomas Hancock, Paul Revere, and others, not to write anything resembling biographies of these august historical personages, but only to make use of them as pivotal figures, and as a framework in which to place a picture of their times..." This is vintage Boston before busing, before condo conversion, before massive development. From brands to waste baskets, you'll see many things that have gone by and are bygone. Edgewear, worn corners, a few curled page tips. . First Thus. Trade Paperback. Good/No Jacket. Illus. by Berchen, William. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
