Please join us and award-winning author William Martin for a talk on Boston's Back Bay. Using photographs he discovered while researching his first best seller, Back Bay, Martin will trace the development of this famous Boston neighborhood. Following the movement of the fictional Pratt family from the waterfront, over Pemberton Hill, and on to the Back Bay, Martin's photo presentation will examine the details in old and rare images of nineteenth-century Boston, revealing the city as you may never have seen it before.
The lecture will begin at 6:00pm, followed by a light reception.
Please note that this lecture is limited to 75 participants. Reserve your spot now!
