Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set along the picturesque Charles River, West Roxbury has transformed from a rural area into a vibrant neighborhood of Victorian homes since its incorporation in 1851. Originally known as "Westerly," it retains the charm of small-town life while being close to urban amenities. The area is historically significant as the former site of Brook Farm, a utopian community that drew prominent 19th-century intellectuals like Nathaniel Hawthorne and Ralph Waldo Emerson, making it a notable center for literary and cultural achievement.
