Summary | "Curiosities of History: Boston, September Seventeenth, 1630-1880" by William W. Wheildon is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the rich history of Boston, focusing on various interesting and lesser-known aspects of the city from its early settlement to the year 1880. Wheildon's research aims to provide insights into the topography, governance, culture, and notable events of Boston over more than two centuries. The opening of this historical examination introduces the reader to Wheildon's intention to explore curious and significant topics related to Boston’s past without claiming complete accuracy or exhaustive coverage. He acknowledges the limitations and potential errors in his narratives while emphasizing the vibrant evolution of the city and its people. The initial chapters outline the topography of early Boston, the establishment of public ferries, and the agricultural development that once characterized the land, setting the stage for a deeper dive into the city’s historical curiosities.
