Block Island: Lore and Legends

98 pp. Two-panel map on front endpapers, black-and-white photographs. This little volume is a patchwork of innumerable small scraps of information gathered together from sources far and wide by one who loves Block Island for those who would know it better. It is not intended to be a history but a short narrative interlaced with bits of history, folklore and legends of Rhode Island's only insular township.--foreword
