Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boys of Thirty-Five: A Story of a Seaport Town It stood close upon the sidewalk, and originally fronted the street; the town authorities declared that it encroached upon the roadway and proposed to set it back, but my grandfather threatened to shoot the first man who attempted to move it. I used to fancy him stalking up and down in front of the house, with his gun upon his shoulder. His direful threat was not without its effect, for the old house remained undisturbed until after his death. He was a ship-master, and one dark night, while going down Long Wharf in Boston, he fell overboard and was drowned. All fear of the avenging gun being now removed, the selectmen turned the house about, presenting its gable end to the street. My grand mother weakly consented to this encroachment, but she always said that the town never kept its agree ment to make the house as good as it was before She was only a widow, and kept no gun.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of a Sea Port Town, Vol. 3 of 3 And yet there were many minute circumstances which, singly, were of no value, and might be accounted for as the effect of imagination - but which, in conjunction with each other, must favour the notion, that Colonel Levison was yet alive, or be ascribed at once to supernatural influence. The shadow at Mrs. Arnold's ball, the disturbances at Dale Hall, (which had been a favourite scene of his pranks and debaucheries) though every pains to explain these away, and to discover their cause had proved ineffectual, - still it was possible that Isabella's correspondent might possess some clue for the perfect unravelling of the mystery. Yet Temple was aware that it would be a wearisome and uncertain pursuit, to attempt to discover who this correspondent might be, in a place so wide as our town, and that it would only expose his own suspicions more fully to the person or persons, whose interest it was to perplex and ensnare him.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from By Rock and Pool: On an Austral Shore and Other Stories The quaint, old-fashioned little town faces eastward to the blue Pacific, whose billows, when the wind blows from any point between north and east, come tumbling in across the shallow bar in ceaseless lines of foaming white, to meet, when the tide is on the ebb, the swift current of a tidal river as broad as the Thamesflat Westminster Bridge. Oh the south side of the bar, from the sleepy town itself to the pilot station on the Signal Hill, there rises a series of smooth grassy bluffs, whose seaward bases touch the fringe of many small beaches, or start sheer upward from the water when the tide is high, and the noisy swish and swirl of the eager river current has ceased.

Download or read book Our Towns written by James Fallows and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BEST SELLER • The basis for the HBO documentary now streaming on HBO Max For five years, James and Deborah Fallows have travelled across America in a single-engine prop airplane. Visiting dozens of towns, the America they saw is acutely conscious of its problems—from economic dislocation to the opioid scourge—but it is also crafting solutions, with a practical-minded determination at dramatic odds with the bitter paralysis of national politics. At times of dysfunction on a national level, reform possibilities have often arisen from the local level. The Fallowses describe America in the middle of one of these creative waves. Their view of the country is as complex and contradictory as America itself, but it also reflects the energy, the generosity and compassion, the dreams, and the determination of many who are in the midst of making things better. Our Towns is the story of their journey—and an account of a country busy remaking itself.
