This book presents an extensive compendium of demographic and statistical information gleaned from the first complete census of Rhode Island, conducted in 1865 by the state government. The volume includes data on population, manufacturing, agriculture, and fisheries. Though the work serves as a record of a specific time and place, it also offers insights into larger historical trends. This census, for instance, reflects the rapid industrialization of the state, which resulted in a surge in population in urban areas and a decline in rural populations. By comparing this detailed snapshot with subsequent censuses, readers can perceive larger economic and social shifts that affected Rhode Island and the United States as a whole.
