Bristol; a shire town in the smallest county in the smallest state; is nestled between the Narragansett and Mount Hope Bays. Most of the town is surrounded by water; and its history lies therein. Bristol is ever changing; yet it manages to retain a small hometown character. This nostalgic postcard history of Bristol leads readers down dusty; mid-19th-century streets and into the bustling mid-1950s historic center. Today; people sail leisurely into Bristol�s snug harbor; dock at the many public landings; and dine on the waterfront. Other visitors stroll down tree-lined streets; take in the many beautiful seascapes; or marvel at the aristocratic 18th-century homes built by wealthy merchants; slavers; and privateers.
