Lawrence, Robert Means, 1847-1935 · 1922 · Boston ; New York : Houghton Mifflin company · 6 pictures

A local history of Boston's Park Street and the streets around it, written by physician and antiquarian Robert Means Lawrence and published by Houghton Mifflin in 1922 for New England readers interested in the city's older buildings. The plates mix a tinted painting of a hilltop house and pasture, a bird's-eye pen drawing of scattered houses with street names lettered in the margins, and sepia photographs of a white-spired meeting house, fenced sidewalks, bare elms, and a statue and fountain on a terrace.
