Description:Excerpt from Dr. Holmes's Boston Dr. Holmes was in truth the poet-laureate of Boston. He early won the laurels which were placed on his brow by his appreciative fellow-citizens, and these he wore triumphantly until the end. And in turn he crowned Boston with literary offerings such as no other citizen has bestowed in like measure. The spirit of New England has doubtless been presented in prose and verse by other sons and daughters, but no one else has given us so much of Boston from the Bostonian point of view. Except for a brief interim Dr. Holmes passed all of his years in Boston, "tethered," it has been said, close to the State House, whose gilded dome he has immortalized in literature. All of his intimates lived within a few miles of him, and his useful activities were confined to his own community. Unlike so many prominent men of letters, he was in no way connected with diplomatic or political affairs; he held no public office, and his cheerful, useful career progressed in even, tranquil measures "in his own place."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
