In his introduction, Edward S. Morse describes how the author presents "a quaint collection of facts of interest to the antiquary and the ethnologist." Of particular interest to those interested in New England social life and culture. Author Henry Mason Brooks (1822-1898) would continue this series with books on other topics, including The Old Lottery, Days of the Spinning Wheel, New England Sundays, Quaint and Curious Advertisements, Some Strange and Curious Punishments, and Literary Curiosities.
