Non-musical history for today: 1867 – At Tremont Temple in Boston, British author Charles Dickens gave his first public reading in the United States. It was for A Christmas Carol and Pickwick Papers.

I stayed at the Omni Parker House in Boston and loved it. It is where both the Boston Cream Pie and Parker House rolls originated, too. Music

Non-musical history for today: 1947 – The United Nations General Assembly approved the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine.
