Capitale et port actif de l'état du Massachusetts. Fondée en 1630, la ville tint vite un rôle parmi les 13 colonies américaines. Foyer du puritanisme elle fut aussi un des centres de l'opposition à la tyrannie de Londres. En 1773 les "fils de la liberté" s'emparent des navires chargés de thé et jettent leur cargaison par dessus bord.
C'est la Boston tee Party pour protester contre la domination économique anglaise. Trois ans plus tard, les 13 colonies proclameront leur indépendance.
Boston demeure une place financière et commerciale importante. Elle est le siège de l'université Harvard fondée en 1636. Boston a su préserver ses anciens quartiers et possède un très riche musée des beaux-arts. La ville a vu naître notamment Benjamin Franklin, Edgar Alan Poe et John F. Kennedy.
