"By showing how the entanglements of race, place, and wealth have played out at Boston National Historic Park, Bruggeman helps to clarify how racialized power reproduces itself and how it is sedimented in institutional practices of preservation and commemoration."--Cathy Stanton, author of The Lowell Experiment: Public History in a Postindustrial City "Based on exhaustive research and written in a lively, accessible style, Lost on the Freedom Trail provides valuable insight into the profitability of preservation and heritage tourism, and the synergies and tensions created from establishing a national historic park within a living urban center."--Stephanie Ryberg-Webster, coeditor of Legacy Cities: Continuity and Change amid Decline and Revival " Lost on the Freedom Trail reaffirms the assertion that because our understanding of the past has consistently undergone evolutions, it will continue to do so. This book will do well in the hands of people who want to be onsite when that change happens"-- Rebecca Brenner Graham , New England Quarterly, "By showing how the entanglements of race, place, and wealth have played out at Boston National Historic Park, Bruggeman helps to clarify how racialized power reproduces itself and how it is sedimented in institutional practices of preservation and commemoration."--Cathy Stanton, author of The Lowell Experiment: Public History in a Postindustrial City"Based on exhaustive research and written in a lively, accessible style, Lost on the Freedom Trail provides valuable insight into the profitability of preservation and heritage tourism, and the synergies and tensions created from establishing a national historic park within a living urban center."--Stephanie Ryberg-Webster, coeditor of Legacy Cities: Continuity and Change amid Decline and Revival, "By showing how the entanglements of race, place, and wealth have played out at Boston National Historic Park, Bruggeman helps to clarify how racialized power reproduces itself and how it is sedimented in institutional practices of preservation and commemoration."--Cathy Stanton, author of The Lowell Experiment: Public History in a Postindustrial City "Based on exhaustive research and written in a lively, accessible style, Lost on the Freedom Trail provides valuable insight into the profitability of preservation and heritage tourism, and the synergies and tensions created from establishing a national historic park within a living urban center."--Stephanie Ryberg-Webster, coeditor of Legacy Cities: Continuity and Change amid Decline and Revival

Synopsis
Winner of the 2023 Society for History in the Federal Government Book Prize Boston National Historical Park is one of America's most popular heritage destinations, drawing in millions of visitors annually. Tourists flock there to see the site of the Boston Massacre, to relive Paul Revere's midnight ride, and to board Old Ironsides --all of these bound together by the iconic Freedom Trail, which traces the city's revolutionary saga. Making sense of the Revolution, however, was never the primary aim for the planners who reimagined Boston's heritage landscape after the Second World War. Seth C. Bruggeman demonstrates that the Freedom Trail was always largely a tourist gimmick, devised to lure affluent white Americans into downtown revival schemes, its success hinging on a narrow vision of the city's history run through with old stories about heroic white men. When Congress pressured the National Park Service to create this historical park for the nation's bicentennial celebration in 1976, these ideas seeped into its organizational logic, precluding the possibility that history might prevail over gentrification and profit., Argues that Boston National Historical Park's Freedom Trail was always largely a tourist gimmick, devised to lure affluent white Americans into downtown revival schemes, its success hinging on a narrow vision of the city's history run through with old stories about heroic white men.
