Boston By Foot has created a walking tour inspired by the question, “What makes Boston, Boston?” On this tour we’ll discuss how Boston’s identity as a city has evolved over time and how our sense of self has been created and shaped by events, political movements, and of course, by the many people who have called the city home.
Certain books were “banned in Boston” at least as far back as 1651, when one William Pynchon wrote a book criticizing Puritanism.
