An old piece of travel literature written before the start of the twentieth century. The author writes about his excursions with a bicycle along the puritan coast, starting from Boston. The book is wonderfully illustrated with very detailed drawings. It is very intriguing to see which things stayed the same (Salem already had a lot of antique shops back then) and learn about some of the old legends.
