Rhode Island Curiosities Summary

Rhode Island Curiosities: Quirky Characters, Roadside Oddities & Other Offbeat Stuff by Seth Brown

A former Providence Journal columnist introduces you to the quintessential Rhode Island-its iconic foods (coffee milk, the Awful Awful, Del's lemonade, and Yacht Club Soda); its iconic monuments (the two-ton termite known as The Big Blue Bug, the Superman Building, and Mr. Potato Head); and its iconic events (Parade of the Ancients and Horribles, Best Dressed State Trooper Awards, and the Fools Regatta).
