Blogging Beantown


Highlights of a short trip to Boston/Cambridge/Cape Ann included the freedom trail sights and the culinary delights of S and S Restaurant. Whereas Colonel Shaw helped get recognition for black soldiers in the Civil War, Ma Edelstein got employment for black workers at her restaurant. PS The Flogging of the Beantown Sox has come courtesy of the Detroit Tigers. Thank you to the sons of Hank Greenberg. Here's a slide show composed a images of the 54th Massachusetts Regiment and some sound clips from Glory, a pretty good film despite Matthew Broderick's inept performance as Colonel Shaw.
