Rhode Island could be called the colony of 'independent thinkers'. Founded by Roger Williams in 1636, after his banishment from Massachusetts due to his religious beliefs, Rhode Island consisted of a large island called Rhode Island and a mainland called Providence Plantations. Using primary source documents to enhance a lively and accessible text, it is a vivid account of the story behind the foundation of this colony and the independent spirit of those who settled there.
