Each chapter is written by a different author with close knowledge of one town: Portland on Casco Bay, old Rutland, Puritan Salem, Concord, Plymouth, Cambridge, Deerfield and others. Together they trace the founders, the town meetings, the old families, the houses and the writers that shaped each place, moving from colonial beginnings to the 1890s.

A companion for travellers and readers who want the stories behind New England’s greens, churches and harbours. Download the free EPUB.
