A People's History of the New Boston by Jim Vrabel, University of Massachusetts Press, 2014, 235.

I love narrative nonfiction-- easy reading. And i especially love narrative nonfiction about Boston. Vrabel recounts the recent history of the "new" Boston-- some stories I knew, some I learned more about and some were totally new to me. Recent past because it still plays out everyday and in every election. Loved it just from the title-- great for local yokels and Boston news junkies.
