Rhode Island’s small size belies an immense legacy, from the outsized impact on
World War II to the bygone grandeur of downtown
Providence. In spite of the
storms that battered its coasts and sunk its
ships, the Ocean State has never been overwhelmed by its namesake. Enjoy the undiminished pleasures of an iconic
clam shack, the celebrated thrills of
Rocky Point Park or the matchless vistas of the
Newport Bridge. Our catalogue of Rhode Island history books extends a sturdy causeway to the state’s capacious past.
