Author Tim Lehnert says, Sure
it s a fact book with a stockpile of statistics, but this a book full
of color. From profiles of the Farrelly brothers and Buddy Cianci to
John Giorse's most memorable weather events and Mark Patinkin s signs
you've been in Rhode Island too long, it s all here. The question for
me was not what to put in, but what to leave out.
When you have the Newport Daily
News calling it a great guide and the Providence Phoenix saying it s a
breezy and entertaining read highly recommended, it gives you a
feeling you came close to getting it right, says Lehnert. There are
some profiles that aren't very flattering in here, but that was the
goal not to sugarcoat anything to tell it like it is.

Excerpt from Rhode
Island 101
"It is rarely
good news when 60 Minutes comes to town to do a story. Morley Safer was
my interviewer. After several hours, he asked, "Five years ago, you
prayed for an hour each day. Fine for a lawyer, fine for a nun. What
about as Attorney General?"
"You wouldn't believe all the prayers I said before you came to
town," I quipped....One of Arlene Violet's Top Five Memorable
Moments As Attorney General

Testimonials
A GREAT GUIDE . . .
"Rhode Island 101" is a great guide to anyone who wants to
know what stuffies are, what comprises an Awful-Awful or why cabinets
have nothing to do with home furnishings."
-Jim Gillis, Newport Daily News July 17, 2009
BREEZY AND ENTERTAINING . . .
"It's a breezy and entertaining read featuring contributions from
the likes of Jim Taricani, Ted Widmer, Charlie Hall, Rory Raven,
Arlene Violet, and a slew of other prominent Rhody people. Highly
recommended . . . ."
-Phillipe and Jorge, The Providence Phoenix July 8, 2009
SO TRUE IT'S SCARY . . .
"I absolutely love it... It's fun to read all of the fun and
interesting things about RI. My personal favorite chapter is the one
on slang. It's so true it's scary! Plus I live right off Benefit
Street so all of the history really hits home. My fiancé can't put it
down either. When we first got it, he showed it to everyone. Now he
keeps it in the bathroom and has almost read it cover to cover. But
please don't take offense to that, its really the only time I can get
him to read. So hats off..."
