1. Hidden History of Rhode Island: Not-To-Be-Forgotten Tales of the Ocean State by Glenn Laxton, Surprising tales and unexpected anecdotes color Rhode Island's legacy, from the accounts of its three brave Titanic survivors to the whirlwind Revolutionary War romance between a Smithfield girl and a French viscount. Rhode Island historian Glenn Laxton uncovers the exceptional citizens whom history has forgotten, like Robert the Hermit, a man who endured three escapes from slavery before finding liberty and peace in Rumford; the illustrious Lippitt family, who spearheaded advancements in deaf education; and Christiana Bannister, a Narragansett tribe member, nineteenth-century entrepreneur, and wife to the most successful African American artist of the time. With moments of tragedy, as in the Lexington steamboat disaster, as well as triumph, as in the case of a small-town boy turned baseball hero Joe Connolly, Laxton reveals Rhode Island beneath the surface.

2. Quotable New Englander: Four Centuries of Wit and Wisdom by Eric D Lehman

   From the Mayflower's landing to the age of the internet, New Englanders have always had something to say. Focusing on the unique qualities of both land and people, The Quotable New Englander showcases the linguistic insight of the region's native and adopted sons and daughters, from writers like Emily Dickinson to politicians like John F. Kennedy. Sometimes insightful, sometimes hilarious, these quotes will have readers smiling, laughing, and shaking their heads.
