Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Petition of the Mayor of Cambridge for Annexation of a Part of Belmont: Closing Argument of Hon. Henry W. Muzzey, in Behalf of Cambridge, Before the Committee on Towns, March 9, 1880 Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen, - This protracted hearing has been devoted to a large public question. It has not occupied your time and attention without the warrant of a leading call in the course of legislative service. It does not raise the ordinary question as to what is expedient, just and right in a contest between towns. The appeal of Cambridge is not connected with mean strifes for territorial aggrandizement. It looks with no covetous eye upon its neighbors' possessions of wealth or inhabitants. It has no political aim of community or individuals. It is, therefore, severed from ordinary appeals for legislative aid. Why? - because of the extraordinary reason that a people, already 50,000 in number, under grants from the Commonwealth, and resting in the trust that whatever they might need in the future for their protection and safety would be readily given, have taken from their treasury $1,700,000. This large sum of money has been expended in the faith that the legislature of Massachusetts would not pronounce it wasted. The hour has come when we are to learn whether a grant of the State will be protected by the State. The legislature is to answer us. The call is exigent. It is based upon testimony from the highest sources. It is an unchallenged fact that the city of Cambridge has brought to the aid of its own officials the highest scientific help to solve its trouble. And I say, that at the threshold of this investigation, we must have satisfied you, through the conscientious service of Cambridge officials, supplemented by the service of these distinguished experts, that the conclusion is, and must be, that the health and the lives of the community they have served demand what we seek from the wisdom, prudence and justice of the General Court of Massachusetts.

Book excerpt: The history of Fresh Pond Reservation—onetime summer retreat for wealthy Bostonians, center of the nineteenth-century ice industry, and stomping grounds for Harvard students—told through photographs, maps and plans, and stories. Fresh Pond Reservation, at the northwest edge of Cambridge, Massachusetts, has been described as a “landscape loved to death.” Certainly it is a landscape that has been changed by its various uses over the years and one to which Cantabridgeans and Bostonians have felt an intense attachment. Henry James returned to it in his sixties, looking for “some echo of the dreams of youth,” feeling keenly “the pleasure of memory”; a Harvard student of the 1850s fondly remembered skating parties and the chance of “flirtation with some fair-ankled beauty of breezy Boston”; modern residents argue fiercely over dogs being allowed to run free at the reservation and whether soccer or nature is a more valuable experience for Cambridge schoolchildren. In Fresh Pond, Jill Sinclair tells the story of the pond and its surrounding land through photographs, drawings, maps, plans, and an engaging narrative of the pond's geological, historical, and political ecology. Fresh Pond has been a Native American hunting and fishing ground; the site of an eighteenth-century hotel offering bowling, food and wine, and impromptu performances by Harvard men; a summer retreat for wealthy Bostonians; a training ground for trench warfare; a location for picnics and festivals for workers and sporting activities for all. The parkland features an Olmsted design, albeit an imperfectly realized one. The pond itself—a natural lake carved out by the retreating Ice Age about 15,000 years ago—was a center of the nineteenth-century ice industry (disparaged by Thoreau, writing about another pond), and still supplies the city of Cambridge with fresh drinking water. Sinclair's celebration of a local landscape also alerts us to broader issues—shifts in public attitudes toward nature (is it brutal wilderness or in need of protection?) and water (precious commodity or limitless flow?)—that resonate as we remake our relationship to the landscape.
