Meer over het boek
The historical narrative explores Newport's establishment in 1639, highlighting its appeal to settlers for religious freedom and its growth into a major seaport during Colonial times. The city's prosperity faced challenges during the Revolutionary War, particularly from a three-year British occupation that led to significant destruction. Despite this, Newport retains the largest collection of eighteenth-century homes in the U.S., showcasing its resilience and rich architectural heritage. The Newport Restoration Foundation, established in 1968, plays a key role in preserving this legacy.
