This book traces the development of Boston's city government from its origins as a town meeting directly governed by the people to a government by representation under a city charter. The author describes the challenges faced by Boston as it grew from a small town to a major city, and the ways in which the city's government adapted to meet these challenges. The book also examines the debates over the principles of municipal government that have taken place in Boston over the years, and the ways in which these debates have shaped the city's government. The author concludes by arguing that Boston's experience with city government provides valuable lessons for other cities facing similar challenges.
