À propos de ce contenu audio

 Dive into the enchanting tales of old Narragansett, where history and folklore intertwine. From familiar fireside stories cherished by longtime residents to vague traditions and summer dreams, this collection captures the essence of a land steeped in rich heritage. Explore family chronicles inspired by Thomas R. Hazards Recollections of the Olden Times and Updikes Narragansett Church. Once home to the Narragansett Indians, this picturesque region evolved dramatically over the centuries, transitioning from Kings Province to what we now know as Washington County. With vast estates owned by a select few and a community shaped by the Church of England and African slavery, colonial Narragansetts social life mirrored that of the Virginian plantations rather than its Puritan New England counterparts. This was a land alive with superstitions, folk customs, and a vibrant tapestry of cultures. While the grandeur of wealth and abundance may have faded, the beauty of Narragansetts fields, lakes, and shores remains timeless, now welcoming a new generation of summer homes. These pages are a tribute to the perfect days spent wandering Narragansetts roads, woods, and shores.Copyright Culture and Heritage classics
