This early works is a fascinating guide to Historic Hingham and is illustrated throughout. INTRODUCTION: For two hundred and fifty years after the settlement of Hingham the favourite method of approach was by water, and there is still no better way to get a first glimpse of the town. Sailing south from Boston one enters a cup shaped arm of the bay, dotted with tiny islands, and well sheltered from the fury of eastern gales. Along its green shores lie the scattered houses of summer colonies and, at the bottom of the cup, are a few wharves and old buildings that date back to the time when Hingham's mackerel fleet was her chief pride..... Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
