Dressing them up in costumes for sporting events, holidays, or for activist messages, these simple little bronze ducklings have come to represent a record of the recent decades of life in the city. This book is a tribute to all Bostonians whose creativity and generosity have made this possible. Furthermore, it is an historic record showing the power of public art"--
