Old Boston Taverns and Tavern Clubs with Illustrations
The Inns of Old Boston have played such a part in its history that an illustrated edition of Drake may not be out of place at this late date. "Cole's Inn" has been definitely located, and the "Hancock Tavern" question also settled.
I wish to thank the Bostonian Society for the privilege of reprinting Mr. Watkin's account of the "Bakers' Arms" and the "Golden Ball" and valuable assistance given by Messrs. C. F. Read, E. W. McGlenen, and W. A. Watkins; Henderson and Ross for the illustration of the "Crown Coffee House," and the Walton Advertising Co. for the "Royal Exchange Tavern."
Other works consulted are Snow's History of Boston, Memorial History of Boston, Stark's Antique Views, Porter's Rambles in Old Boston, and Miss Thwing's very valuable work in the Massachusetts Historical Society.
