  • About 30 miles north of Boston is the town of Lowell where famed Beat Generation 'On The Road' writer was born, lived and is buried. Travel from Boston's North Station by rail in around 30 minutes. Call in at the Lowell tourist information centre for your maps and information leaflets. Kerouac is buried in Edson cemetary - exact location is provided by the tourist centre. Also call by Jack Kerouac Park on Bridge Street, where tall standing stones, arranged in a Catholic and Buddhist design, are incscribed quotes from Kerouac's many novels.
