Oldport Days is a collection of essays written by Thomas Wentworth Higginson, first published in 1873. The essays are based on Higginson's experiences living in Newport, Rhode Island during the mid-19th century. The book provides a detailed account of life in Newport during this time, including descriptions of the people, places, and events that shaped the community. Higginson's writing style is characterized by his attention to detail, his ability to capture the essence of a moment, and his keen observations of the world around him. The essays cover a wide range of topics, including the social and cultural life of Newport, the natural beauty of the area, and the history of the city. Oldport Days is a fascinating glimpse into life in a bygone era, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Newport or the United States during the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
