Rhode Island (Moon Handbooks S.) Though small in stature, Rhode Island packs more living into its small borders than any other U.S. state. Founded by a religious exile from the Massachusetts Bay colony in the 17th century, this proud little state has emerged from its slumping post-industrial economy to become more than just a Boston to New York City thruway. With Moon Handbooks Rhode Island, Andrew Collins leads travelers on a fascinating journey through the state's six centuries of history, folklore and reality. Being small means everything's close, more than half the population lives within a 15-mile drive of the State House in Providence and everybody in the Ocean State lives within a 30-mile drive from either the beach or Narragansett Bay, America's second-largest estuary. Covering all aspects of the ocean state, from the shores of Newport, South County, and Block Island to the city streets of Providence to the industrial heritage of the Blackstone river valley, Moon Handbooks Rhode Island is the perfect guide for exploring this fascinating state.
