Excerpt from Historic Houses and Spots: In Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Near-by TownsFor more than twelve years I have been searching out and studying the most ancient homes of Cambridge and other historic towns and cities near by, for the benefit of the pupils under my charge. AS we made our annual rounds, the disappearance of old landmarks became, year by year, more noticeable, and thus it occurred to me that a favor might be conferred upon many by giving in this modest little work definite location and brief account of the most famous old houses. Toxthe schoolchildren of Cam bridge and other places this work may be specially useful, supplemented as it is by original and picturesque views, and also by brief references to famous persons with whose names some of the houses are associated.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
