Boston Miscellany
Author: William P. Marchione
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1625843550
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Before the dawn of the Industrial Revolution and the nineteenth centurys cultural renaissance, a serious rebellion was brewing in the taverns of Boston. Look back to a time when riots raged through the streets of Boston, when Beacon Hill was a neighborhood of beggars and vagabonds, and papal effigies burned on the Boston Common. Meet William Blackstone, the first Bostonian, and John Singleton Copley, portrait artist of the elite. In this compilation by historian William Marchione, discover Boston as it once waswhen customs officials were dragged through the sewers and drinking tea was a highly political act. Even the citys largest and most controversial funeral, held for the infamous Sacco and Vanzetti, ended in a street brawl with police. And yet, with the sprawl of the first American railroads, the dawning of the abolitionist movement and the cultural flourishing in art and architecture, Boston emerged as the nations first cultural, economic, and political hub.
