DANIEL DAIN - Author & Attorney at Law - Number One New Amazon Book Release in Urban & Land Use Planning - "The History of Boston" - Episode 155

Rick Flynn Presents is pleased to welcome to our show author and real-estate expert/attorney at law DANIEL DAIN to our program. What makes a city great and successful? The answer is innovation. Although the title of his new #1 Amazon book is "The History of Boston" don't let the title fool you. This book is for anyone who wishes to be, not only entertained, but educated by the amazing tales of tales of such great cities such as Boston, Cleveland, Cincinnati and Dubai. Boston is today one of the world’s greatest cities, first in higher education, hospitals, life science companies, and sports teams. It was the home of the Great Puritan Migration, the American Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, the first civil rights movement, the abolition movement, and the women’s rights movement. But the city that gave us the first use of ether as anesthesia, the telephone, technicolor film, and the mutual fund―the city where Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott founded their world-changing partnership―was also the hub of the anti-immigration movement, the divisive busing era, and decades of self-inflicted decay. Boston has the most important history of any American city. Yet its history has never been given a comprehensive treatment until now. Join Dan Dain as he acts as your tour guide from the arrival of First Peoples up to the election of Boston’s first woman and person of color as mayor. Dain’s masterful work explores the policies and practices that took Boston from its highest heights to its lowest lows and back again, and examines the central role that density, diversity, and good urban design play in the success of cities like Boston. Here is an 832-page book for you in both hardcover and Kindle format and is available wherever books are sold including Amazon.
