"This book covering more than 300 years of the course of Boston's history has now been enlarged with an account of the city's new urban design, architecture, and historic preservation. In the last three decades momentous changes have visited this colonial city made modern. Lawrence W.

Boston has been remarkably transformed while keeping human the features of a beloved city."--BOOK JACKET.
