Excerpt from Old Boston in Colonial Days, Or St. Botoph's Town: From the Time Blackstone, the First Settler, to the Outbreak of the American Revolution The truth is that it is biography rather than history which really allures me, history seems to me worse than useless unless it illus trates the times of which it writes as those times affected the lives of its men and women. A book like this has no justification, to my mind, save as it makes us understand just a little better the part New England, in the per son of its chief town, has played in the mighty drama of nations made up of thinking, feeling men and women.
