Produktbeschreibung

New Providence Travel, Rhode Island. Atop the confluence of the Providence, Moshassuck and Woonasquatucket Rivers, Rhode Island's capital city offers some of the finest urban strolling in New England: around Brown University's historic campus on 18th-century College Hill, along the landscaped Riverwalk trail, and among downtown's handsome streets and lanes with their hipster-y cafes, art-house theaters, fusion restaurants and trendsetting bars. Once destined to become an industrial relic, Providence's fate was spared when Buddy Cianci, its then controversial two-time mayor, rolled out a plan to revitalize the downtown core by rerouting subterranean rivers, reclaiming land and restoring historic facades. It created a city where history's treasures are integrated into a creative present, not simply memorialized; where three centuries of architectural styles are unified in colorful urban streetscapes that are at once bold, beautiful and cooler than cool.

Autorenporträt

Brian Miller was born in 1944, in Christchurch, UK. He started his career training as a carpenter and finished as an architectural designer and self-employed builder. Brian always had an interest in writing--submitting comedy material to comedians, radio and television. Following a chance meeting with Nick Clabburn, a lyricist, at Brian's daughter's art gallery, he decided to try his hand at lyric-writing. With positive encouragement from Nick, that has resulted in this booklet. Brian hopes that anyone purchasing the booklet will have as much enjoyment from it as he has had writing it.
