An interesting and amusing collection of swindles, scams, murders, suicides, adulteries, divorces and bigamies among the elite in Boston during the colonial times. This just goes to support my theory that Nothing Ever Changes: the Founding Fathers and Mothers misbehaved quite as colorfully as their descendants 300+ years later. I admire the author's efforts to dig out these fascinating but very obscure tales. A series of similar books on other major colonial cities (New York, Philadelphia, Charleston etc) would definitely hold my attention. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Simons traces some early Boston scandals, illustrating both the uniqueness of its people and the universalities of human nature. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
