Description:For a few heady years when the country was young, Salem's name was synonymous with East Indiamen, privateers, and the overseas luxury trade. Sailing vessels from this port opened new markets to American trade from Bordeaux to Sumatra. Tea, coffee, pepper, and other goods made Salem one of the most prosperous cities in America. While Salem's wharves no longer resound with the clamor of its Eastern trade, few places are so resonant with America's seafaring past or testify so vigorously to the adage "fortune favors the brave."This illustrated guide invites travelers to Salem's historic areas, highlighting two institutions associated with the city's maritime past. Salem Maritime National Historic Site preserves the early wharves, the Custom House, and an array of historic buildings along with the waterfront. The Peabody Essex Museum preserves a nautical collection of remarkable range and interest. The museum has extensive exhibits and archival holdings. It also oversees seven period houses, all of which are furnished and open to the public.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
