Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memories of Old Salem
Salem born myself, my own ancestors, sea cap tains and supercargoes, sailing from Newburyport, my life has been passed among scenes glowing for me with romance of history. It is a pleasure to re visit the days in which these men ?ourished, to study the habits and domestic life of that period. Walk ing through the streets where they once lived we realize as never before what they did to make our city famous. For that we hold them in reverence.
