The Charles River
defines a good portion of Newton’s city boundary, and has been entwined with
the city’s history from its founding. It has served as a source of waterpower,
transportation, and recreation for Newton and the other 23 towns and cities
along its route and is featured in the stories of many prominent individuals
and inventions. Join author Ted Clarke as he illuminates the story of the
river, which is the subject of his new book The Charles River: A History of
Greater Boston's Waterway.
