Old Days At Beverly Farms (1921) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781168977274)

Old Days at Beverly Farms is a memoir written by Mary Larcom Dow, published in 1921. The book is a nostalgic account of the author's childhood and young adulthood spent in the quaint seaside town of Beverly Farms, Massachusetts. Dow reminisces about the simpler times of the late 19th century, when the town was a small fishing village and summer resort destination for wealthy Bostonians. She vividly describes the natural beauty of the area, including the rocky coastline, sandy beaches, and lush forests. The author also shares anecdotes about the colorful characters and events that shaped her youth, such as the annual clambake, the town's eccentric hermit, and the arrival of the first automobiles. Dow's writing style is charming and evocative, transporting the reader back in time to a bygone era. Old Days at Beverly Farms is a delightful read for anyone interested in local history and the nostalgia of small-town life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
