Rhode to Independence

As America marks its 250th anniversary, we explore outsized role Rhode Island played in the Revolution. Hosts Pamela Watts and David Wright trace the Ocean State's path to independence from the burning of the Gaspee and Nathanael Greene's military leadership to the pioneering 1st Rhode Island Regiment, Newport's wartime decline, Providence's rise and Rhode Island's renunciation of the Crown.
