Secret Boston: The Unique Guidebook to Boston's Hidden Sites, Sounds, and Tastes


Secret Boston: The Unique Guidebook to Boston's Hidden Sites, Sounds, and Tastes
by Laura Purdom, Photographs by Linda Rutenberg
Secret Guides

Whether you are a resident of Boston or planning on visiting that historic city, this guide will help you see and experience Boston's fascinating treasures. Laura is very precise in her annotations. She even gives dialing instructions so you know when you have to add the "1" before the 10-digit dialing. This can save you money if you are trying to dial an ISP number from a hotel. Although there are too many chapters to list, some of the ones that fascinated me are:

  • Antique Malls
  • Bakeries
  • Beaches
  • Bookstores
  • Brewery Tour
  • Candy Factory
  • Cemeteries
  • Chocolate
  • City Views
  • Gondolas
  • Green Spaces
  • Inner Peace
  • Lodging
  • Lost Garden
  • Star Gazing
  • Theater
  • Uppity Women
  • Useful Things
  • Vegetarian
  • Weather
  • and more...
  • The contact information includes address, phone numbers and url location. The book is arranged alphabetically, and also has an easy to use Table of Contents, and both a Subject Index and an Alphabetical Index. The Subject Index groups sites and events by interest such as festivals, kids' stuff, restaurants, history, etc. It is also cross referenced. This guide is small enough to fit into a backpack or purse without taking up a lot of room, yet it is packed full of great information including hours and admission fees. For bargain hunters and Boston lovers, this is a very complete guide.
