At the turn of the nineteenth century, the establishment of the Warwick Railroad marked a time of significant change for the people of Providence, Rhode Island. Providence was a wealthy city, but travel around the area was limited, pollution was widespread, and oppressive mill owners took advantage of workers who were left with no other options. Punctuated by actual historical documents from the early 1900s--which includes giving ever-popular clambakes their due--this is the story of how the new railroad forever changed the daily lives of both the wealthy and working classes, and made it possible for residents of the area to exercise greater freedoms in their work, leisure, and even religious practices. For the first time, this essential, often-overlooked part of Rhode Island history is detailed for history enthusiasts through the collaborative efforts of local historians Don D'Amato, Henry A.L. Brown, David R. Tremblay and the Warwick Historical Society.

Although known as the retail capital of Rhode Island, Warwick is much more than a conglomeration of shopping centers, malls, and industrial parks; it is a city marked by an extraordinary history and in many ways, serves as a mirror of the American experience. Like many communities across the United States, Warwick developed from a rural hamlet into a town distinguished by a variety of industries in the nineteenth century, attracting immigrants from across the globe desiring a new beginning within its mill villages. These industries brought wealth and opportunity, and paved the way for Warwick's transformation from small town to cosmopolitan center. Warwick: A City at the Crossroads is not a stale chronology, but is a work that breathes new life into the memorable characters and events that shaped the community's history over the past four centuries. Taking readers on an exciting journey through Warwick's past, this unique illustrated history begins with the first Narragansett Indian tribes that hunted amidst the virgin wilderness and details an evolving landscape touched by colonial settlement, wars, storms, depressions, resort development, and industrialization up through the present day. However, the true measure of a community is in its people, and Warwick possesses a remarkable cast of colorful characters, such as controversial city father, Samuel Gorton, Revolutionary War heroes Nathanael Greene and James Varnum, textile magnate Robert Knight, and scores of other distinct personalities, ranging from privateers and bootleggers to feared political bosses and industrial giants.
