Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details the history of the Wayside Inn, an establishment in the town of Sudbury, Massachusetts. The author narrates the founding of the settlement in the 17th century and introduces the Howe family, who established the inn in the 1700s. The author tells of the inn's proprietors, including its business, their role in the American Revolution, and the building's transformation into the Wayside Inn, popularized by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The author recounts how the influx of patrons led to the building's decline, before its eventual restoration as a landmark. The work explores the broader tapestry of New England life, particularly during the colonial era, and testifies to the importance of preservation and cultural heritage.
