Set against the backdrop of post-Civil War Boston and the Great Boston Fire, this narrative explores the transformation of Allston-Brighton as it joins Boston, while Brookline remains independent. Local historian Ted Clarke chronicles the growth of these neighborhoods amid Boston's decline, highlighting influential figures like Mayor James Michael Curley and John Collins, who worked with Edward Logue to envision a "New Boston." The story delves into the pivotal events that defined these communities and their enduring legacy.
