There are few watering-places in the United States more widely known
than Nahant. Few strangers come to our metropolis, in the Summer season, without paying it a visit.
It is almost like going to sea to visit the extremity of the peninsula, which pushes its bold front
far out into the ocean, and breasts the Atlantic surges which dash continuously against its iron
base.
from Ballou's Pictorial, July 21, 1855
