Historic Photos of Boston is a beautiful new collection of nearly 200 black-and-white photographs of Boston from the 1850s to the 1960s. Part of Turner Publishing's popular "Historic Photos" coffee table book series, it documents the city's growth, changes, and major moments across two centuries.
Take a peek inside the book with this gallery of photos and captions excerpted from Historic Photos of Boston by Timothy Orwig (Turner Publishing, 2007).
