Excerpt from Walks and Rides in the Country Round About Boston: Covering Thirty-Six Cities and Towns, Parks and Public Reservations, Within a Radius of Twelve Miles From the State House IN one of his felicitous addresses to the entering freshman class, President Eliot, of Harvard University, characterized the country round about Boston as the most interesting historical region in the United States, and one of the most beautiful he had ever seen here or in Europe and he strongly advised his auditors to learn the whole region by heart. In this was but echoed the sentiment expressed by countless visitors who have spread the fame of this region far and wide. Within a radius of twelve miles from the State House, easily accessible, are many of the most notable landmarks and monuments of the Colonial, Provincial, and Revolutionary periods, and a territory spreading back from the shores of Boston bay, while thickly settled, yet still of remarkably diversified land scape, enriched by lofty hills, broad sweeps of valley, masses of woodland, picturesque rivers, ponds, and brooks.
