The Underbelly Book is a compilation of scandalous Seacoast historical stories as told through the eyes (and mouths) of accused spy Silas Deane. Based on The Portsmouth Underbelly Tour, one of the Seacoasts' most wild and popular walking tours, this compilation tells the stories of murder, whorehouses, betrayals and debauchery that actually happened on the cobblestone streets. Looking to prove that history does not have to be boring, these stories are presented in a conversational tone that leans more on the vaudeville stage than the library. Come and learn of Ruth Blay and why she died because of a hungry sheriff; read about the Smuttynose murders, the sordid history of Governor John Langdon, the storming of a castle and of John Paul Jones, histories first rock star!
