Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short story book is divided into two parts: the first and longer part of which is about growing up in the baby-boomer generation and coming of age in the City of Boston; whilst the second part is about the city itself-its history, character, personality and nuances. Other than this division-chronological sequence is only incidental so the story reading can be done without having to be overly concerned with paying attention to special sequence as each story while related to the theme has its own stand alone merit while at the same time still being part of a compilation. Each tale is a slice of the pie, or rather a sliver of the pie of the city to get a feel for it and that is what this book is all about- a nostalgic reminiscent short story book of tales set in the City of Boston, as well as in the second part- a guide for the newcomer as to what to expect in a city of which so much has been written it can be difficult to separate fact from fiction. Boston- the untold story: What is the city all about? What was it like coming of age in the Boston baby-boomer generation? What is a Bostonian? What makes a Bostonian tick? Baraska tackles these questions head on as well as a myriad of others as a lifelong resident Bostonian and takes you inside Americas oldest and most historical walking city. With his hands on the pulse of the city at a major metropolitan newspaper, Baraska takes you inside this hub city to fill in the blanks as he unveils the nuances of this- the Capital Bay City of New England, and whilst the many guides on Boston do a fine job, Baraska states, they may not tell you when the red light turns green-GO immediately before the horns start to blow or how to really get the the bargains at Filenes Basement. What NOT to ask a Bostonian: Baraska advises, as well as what a resident does like to commiserate about. How NOT to act in Boston to avoid native disapprobation; What NEVER to do in Boston if you dont want to end up like General George Armstrong Custer; where to sit at Fenway Park and who sells the best hot dogs. From coming of age in a scholarly city to looking at a New Yorkers view of Beantown, Baraska not only raises the questions but gives the answer unabashedly, e.g. When queried about why the Pilgrims came here in the first place and landed at Plymouth Rock in 1620- Baraska counterpunches with his own query, that the Pilgrims first destination was Holland before coming here- couldnt they get along there either he muses? And was it not these same Puritans who came here for a purer Anglican religion (hence the name) and religious freedom who publicly executed Mary Dyer on the Boston Common because she was of the different Quaker religion? As for the Boston Tea Party, Baraska, not incidentally, suggests the 342 crates of British Tea dumped into Boston Harbor on the evening of December 16, 1773 may have been driven more by economic concerns than patriotism since the imported British product was underselling the tea produced in the Colonies. And certainly blaming it on the Indians was less than a noble deed for the defiant colonists. Ben Franklin, in any case, Baraska points out, wasnt impressed and offered to assuage the enraged British Crown by paying them back for the cost of the tea dumped into the harbor. And whilst Baraska praises the brilliant copper and silversmith he was (his copper was used in the making of the State House Dome) he does raise the specter of possibility that Paul Reveres famous ride on that fateful evening of April 18, 1775 may have been driven in part as a desire for a break in the baby-sitting of his 16 children (as well as by Colonial Militia patriotic concerns).

Download or read book Occupy the Future written by David Grusky and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2013-01-18 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the Occupy movement has challenged the gap between American principles and American practice—and how we can realize our most cherished ideals. The Occupy Wall Street movement has ignited new questions about the relationship between democracy and equality in the United States. Are we also entering a moment in history in which the disjuncture between our principles and our institutions is cast into especially sharp relief? Do new developments—most notably the rise of extreme inequality—offer new threats to the realization of our most cherished principles? Can we build an open, democratic, and successful movement to realize our ideals? Occupy the Future offers informed and opinionated essays that address these questions. The writers—including Nobel Laureate in Economics Kenneth Arrow and bestselling authors Paul and Anne Ehrlich—lay out what our country's principles are, whether we're living up to them, and what can be done to bring our institutions into better alignment with them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few American cities possess a history as long, rich, and fascinating as Boston’s. A site of momentous national political events from the Revolutionary War through the civil rights movement, Boston has also been an influential literary and cultural capital. From ancient glaciers to landmaking schemes and modern infrastructure projects, the city’s terrain has been transformed almost constantly over the centuries. The Atlas of Boston History traces the city’s history and geography from the last ice age to the present with beautifully rendered maps. Edited by historian Nancy S. Seasholes, this landmark volume captures all aspects of Boston’s past in a series of fifty-seven stunning full-color spreads. Each section features newly created thematic maps that focus on moments and topics in that history. These maps are accompanied by hundreds of historical and contemporary illustrations and explanatory text from historians and other expert contributors. They illuminate a wide range of topics including Boston’s physical and economic development, changing demography, and social and cultural life. In lavishly produced detail, The Atlas of Boston History offers a vivid, refreshing perspective on the development of this iconic American city. Contributors Robert J.
