"Concord Massachusetts in History, Literature, and the Arts" is an introduction to the major figures and events that draw visitors to this New England town. The American Revolution began here in 1775, when colonial militia clashed with British soldiers. In the 19th century, due to the magnetism of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Concord became identified with the Transcendentalist movement, and attracted writers such as Nathanael Hawthorne, and the Alcotts, and launched the careers of artists such as the sculptor Daniel Chester French. Concord native Henry Thoreau, with some inspiration from Emerson and his own supply of will and original thought, came to the forefront as an icon of the town.
This book, 24 pages in length, printed in full color, has 42 illustrations including contemporary and antique photographs, paintings, and engravings.
