Synopsis
Excerpt from Tales of Old Times in Rhode Island: An Ancient Book Now Republished With Some New Illustrations and Additional Notes
Though it may be one hundred years singe some of the incidents occurred, yet they are known to be truth ful and may be made more interesting to children by explaining to them how very different many things were in that long ago time, when the fastest travelling was by the stage coach; houses were lighted by tallow candles and many of the blessings that we enjoy had not been discovered or invented.
Some modern illustrations have been introduced to contrast with the ancient cuts of the old edition.
