What do the archives, maps, and guides tell you about the North End? Bah! At first glance, I guarantee you that I can lead you down forty little streets and as many tangles of little alleys that fewer than ten living people know about, apart from the foreigners who swarm there. And what do these foreigners know about it?" No, Thurber, all these old houses are the stuff of sumptuous dreams, full of wonders, horrors, and extraordinary miracles. Yet there is not a soul alive to understand them or profit from them. Or rather, there is one, only one—for I have not been digging into the past for nothing." __ Sequence markers:
