Excerpt from In Old Narragansett: Romances and Realities
Some of these stories of old Narragansett are familiar fireside tales to those who have lived in that picturesque land; some are but vague traditions, others summer dreams; a few are family chronicles; still others are outlined in that interesting memoir, Thomas R. Hazard's "Recollections of the Olden Times," or in Updike's "Narragansett Church." Old Narragansett was, properly, all the lands occupied by the Narragansett Indians at the coming of the English. Narragansett is now, popularly, the coast sweep of the western shore of Narragansett Bay from Wickford to Point Judith. In 1685 Narragansett was made a separate government apart from Rhode Island, and was called the Kings Province. When reunited with Rhode Island this was changed to King's Province.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book invites readers to journey back in time to eighteenth-century Narragansett, Rhode Island, a region brimming with wealth and the captivating tensions between tradition and change. Through vivid accounts of local life, the author delves into the customs, beliefs, and daily routines of a community shaped by its unique blend of English heritage, African slavery, and Native American influence. We encounter captivating stories of love, elopement, and the pursuit of happiness, juxtaposed with the stark realities of an era defined by strict social hierarchies and the enduring legacy of colonial power. The author weaves together fascinating details about local industry, including the widespread practice of hand weaving, with the lives of individuals caught in the currents of societal transformation. Ultimately, the book offers a nuanced and compelling glimpse into a forgotten chapter of American history, revealing the complexity of everyday lives in a time of both great change and enduring tradition.
