About the Author:
Principal author of two previous Arcadia books, Providence resident Louis McGowan has long been involved in writing about local history. He has collected postcards of Rhode Island for 25 years, and the views shown here are mainly from his collection. Daniel Brown has worked on two other Arcadia books about Johnston, where he now resides. An amateur historian, he has a great love for Rhode Island and Providence history.
