"The sea-story of Massachusetts," by George Caspar Homans and Samuel Eliot Morison, p. 1-16. From The Sea Story of Massachusetts: "It was enterprise, the energy of the Puritans and the sagacity of their successors which made the name of Massachusetts famous wherever ships penetrate. It is no accident that the Indians of Vancouver Island still refer to all Americas as 'Boston men.' It is said that South Sea Island cannibals, before deciding to cook a shipwrecked mariner, used to enquire if he hailed from Salem. If so, he was rejected as too tough." Price: 25.00 USD
