Mr. Shackleton ¿nds Boston a "very human city, with pleasantly piquant peculiarities." Of course he tells interestingly the things to be seen in Boston, but he deals still more with that Boston which is "a state of mind"-the literary tradition of the city, its lecture habit, its ancestor worship, the "Boston Bag" and the "Sacred God"-and the things that make it a "woman's city." This is not only a guide to Boston sights-it's a pilot to Boston prejudices and ¿ne beliefs. Sprinkled with anecdote and ¿avored with personal adventure, it is a book to cherish, to lend, to read aloud.
