Book excerpt: In the course of its extraordinary history, the Jersey Devil has been exorcised, shot, electrocuted, declared officially dead, and scoffed as foolishness--none of which has had any effect on it or the people who persist in seeing it!This mysterious creature is said to prowl the lonely sand trails and mist-shrouded marshes of the Pine Barrens, and emerge perioducally to rampage through the towns and cities of New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania, leaving many communities in near-hysteria.The authors show that while a few appearances have been out-right fraud and others have likely been the result of mass hysteria, this creature has been seen by enough sane, sober, and responsible citizens to keep the possiblity of its existence alive and tantalizing.Over 50,000 in print

Download or read book The Pine Barrens written by John McPhee and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people think of New Jersey as a suburban-industrial corridor that runs between New York and Philadelphia. Yet in the low center of the state is a near wilderness, larger than most national parks, which has been known since the seventeenth century as the Pine Barrens. The term refers to the predominant trees in the vast forests that cover the area and to the quality of the soils below, which are too sandy and acid to be good for farming. On all sides, however, developments of one kind or another have gradually moved in, so that now the central and integral forest is reduced to about a thousand square miles. Although New Jersey has the heaviest population density of any state, huge segments of the Pine Barrens remain uninhabited. The few people who dwell in the region, the "Pineys," are little known and often misunderstood. Here McPhee uses his uncanny skills as a journalist to explore the history of the region and describe the people—and their distinctive folklore—who call it home.

Book Synopsis A Justification for Increasing New Jersey Pine Barrens Protection Efforts by : Jennifer Van Istendal
Download or read book A Justification for Increasing New Jersey Pine Barrens Protection Efforts written by Jennifer Van Istendal and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1979, the state of New Jersey and the federal government aligned their efforts in order to protect and enrich the natural and cultural resources of the New Jersey Pine Barrens. With the passage of the National Parks and Recreation Act of 1978, the Pinelands National Reserve was established in combination with a governing body to manage it, namely the Pinelands Commission. Through its implementation of the Pinelands Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP), the New Jersey Pinelands Commission is responsible for protecting the Pinelands with respect to preserving the unique ecological integrity, while allowing harmonious development. This applied professional project aims to emphasis the uniquely rich qualities of the Pinelands, as well as reevaluate the governing legislation of the Pinelands, highlight its strengths and weaknesses, and identify opportunities to make amendments and further protect the Pinelands. This project critiques the current practices of the Pinelands Commission and the previous state government administration (2010-2018) and recommends significantly more enforcement of Pineland Commission regulations and modification of regulations as needed.
Book Synopsis New Jersey’s Lost Piney Culture by : William J. Lewis
Download or read book New Jersey’s Lost Piney Culture written by William J. Lewis and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-25 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep within the heart of the New Jersey Pine Barrens, the Piney people have built a vibrant culture and industry from working the natural landscape around them. Foraging skills learned from the local Lenapes were passed down through generations of Piney families who gathered many of the same wild floral products that became staples of the Philadelphia and New York dried flower markets. Important figures such as John Richardson have sought to lift the Pineys from rural poverty by recording and marketing their craftsmanship. As the state government sought to preserve the Pine Barrens and develop the region, Piney culture was frequently threatened and stigmatized. Author and advocate William J. Lewis charts the history of the Pineys, what being a Piney means today and their legacy among the beauty of the Pine Barrens.
