The themes of South Providence—urbanization, immigration, and industrialization—best characterize the nation’s modern development. This volume reveals how a well-known Providence community worshipped, studied, worked, played, ate, and drank. The denizens of South Providence were an extraordinary mix. The geographic and demographic developments of the 19th century crafted the economically diverse, dense, and multicultural community of the 20th century. Today almost every major avenue still contains a varied mixture of residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional uses.Campbell, Paul is the author of 'South Providence, (Ri) ' with ISBN 9780738544847 and ISBN 0738544841.
