Description: "As Boston succumbs to the modern age, it sometimes struggles to retain its storied identity. Fortunately for Bostonians and visitors alike, the city is still speckled with restaurants, shops, and other unique establishments that survive--and thrive--to this day. Ranging in age from 25 to 200, these treasured spots are not merely old. Or historical. Or old and historical. They also evoke a bygone metropolis, lost in time, yet compellingly timely. ... Discovering Vintage Boston tells the unique tale of 50 such spots, highlighting the unlikely adventure that each one has in store."--Page 4 of cover.
