Summary: gripping...couldn't put it down!
Comment: I am not always much of a reader, but this book caught me from the first pages. It is a MUST for anyone who knows and/or loves the city of Boston and the history that goes along with it. I found myself visualizing the streets and areas of Boston as I read each chapter. My only disappointment was the ending...I could not believe that I was on the last page! I wanted it to end differently for the characters (thus, only 4 stars), but overall I was quite satisfied with the book. I am now going to dig into Cape Cod, but the same author.

Summary: An incredibly fun read!
Comment: If you have never been to Boston you will like this book. If you have been or live in Boston, you will LOVE this book. The story is great and William Martin takes you on an adventure that keeps you turning the pages. The story of the Pratts and their search for a family treasure will make you think about your own family history and if there is a treasure to be had. I highly recommend this book. I have also read "Cape Cod" by William Martin and it is equally as fun. Killer beach reading

Summary: very entertaining novel with Boston backdrop
Comment: This was a lively read about a wealthy family in Boston. The story is told in chapters that alternate between modern times (the late 1970s, anyway) and the past, as the family is haunted by its relationship to a Paul Revere tea set. The story is well told, but it seems obvious that the author is a historian -- the story and characters in the past, with a few exceptions, seem much more interesting.
Still, this is a fun read, particularly if you're interested in Boston's history.
