Boston was Originally "by the indians called Shawmutt" but the colonists of 1930, wandering south-ward from there landing place at Salem, named it Trimountaine. It was then renamed Boston on the 7th September, this name was given to it in memory of Boston in Old England, from which many of the colonists had emigrated.This is a fascinating and extensively illustrated look at the history of Boston and will appeal greatly to all historians. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
