This new BPS Humanities newsletter feature is designed to demonstrate to students how history happened here in Boston. All of these primary sources come from Boston institutions within a mile of each other: the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the Massachusetts Historical Society, and the Norman B. Leventhal Map and Education Center at the Boston Public Library.
