Description:

Step off the Freedom Trail to explore lesser-known landscapes in Boston's history. A city of statesmen and scoundrels, freedom fighters and reactionaries, innovators and iconoclasts, "The Hub" comes alive in twenty-eight colorful stories from the Indian plague that preceded the first Puritan settlement to the leaky last stages of the Big Dig.
