Made in Westerly tells the stories of various industries, both big and small, that created products either fanciful or downright practical in Westerly, Rhode Island. This includes textile mills, food and beverage manufacturers, and both long-lasting and short-lived individual businesses. The book also includes reprints of some early sources, such as a chapter from the 1943 book Town That Saved a State: Westerly by Mary Agnes Best and Thomas Perry's 1956 paper for the Westerly Historical Society on the history of mills. The main mission of this book is to give a representative and somewhat random, sometimes familiar and sometimes forgotten, peek into several creative and practical enterprises of Westerly's past and present.
