Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Colonials and Patriots, Vol. 6: Historic Places Commemorating Our Forebears, 1700-1783; The National Survey of Historic Sites and Buildings
Many other places of general interest have been included in the volume, selected from the large number of sites considered by the Survey.
We believe that this book will be of widespread interest, especially to travelers, historians, students, and preservation groups. The Old order changeth, yielding place to new, but, important as this progress is, it should not result in the thoughtless destruction of sites and build ings of great historic value. We hope earnestly that this volume may focus attention on, and stimulate further activities in, the safeguarding and interpretation of an important segment of our heritage.
