William Blackstone's House, Boston - A Glimpse into America's Colonial Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving transports us back to the 17th century, offering a glimpse into the life of William Blackstone, the first European settler in what would later become Boston. The image showcases Blackstone's humble abode nestled amidst the rugged beauty of New England.

Through this digitally cleaned image from Hezekiah Butterworth's "Young Folks History of Boston" we are reminded of how far our nation has come since its colonial beginnings. It serves as a reminder that our present-day society is built upon the foundations laid by individuals like William Blackstone.
