Book excerpt: This exceptional history profiles Gouldtown, a settlement which in many ways typified small-town life in the New England of long ago. The historic settlement of Gouldtown, New Jersey carries a notable role in US history, with several distinguished persons born within its bounds. Although small, the town is remarkable for being one of the best catalogued in its region; this history contains dozens of photographs of local landmarks and community figures, immersing readers in the tight-knit existence residents led centuries ago. As such, this can be considered a snapshot of life in a distant period of America's past. Being written at the beginning of the 20thcentury, this work's style is vastly different from a modern history textbook. We are told a series of anecdotes - these are interesting, even whimsical, stories of the times before and after Gouldtown's founding. Various events and well-known locals are discussed, their spirit and determination to succeed and persevere detailed to a superb degree. We discover how locals supported local trade and commerce, contributed to religious life, and fought valiantly in the U.S. Civil War and other conflicts of the 19th century. In all, those interested in New England and American life long ago will find much value in this chronicle of the past.

Book Synopsis Parallel Communities by : Dennis C. Rizzo
Download or read book Parallel Communities written by Dennis C. Rizzo and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2008-10-23 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true story of the small African American communities that formed in southern New Jersey during the era of slavery—includes photos. For slaves escaping on the Underground Railroad, names like Springtown and Snow Hill promised sanctuary and salvation. Under the pressures of racial prejudice, many free blacks, runaway slaves, and even Native Americans formed island communities on the periphery of South Jersey towns. While Lawnside and others continue to thrive today, others, like Marshalltown and Timbuctoo, now exist only in memory. In this discussion of these primarily African American communities, Dennis Rizzo validates their role in the preservation of tradition, definition of extended family, and creation of a social bond between diverse peoples; together they formed parallel communities based on, but independent of, the larger towns and villages familiar to residents of the Garden State.
Book Synopsis Envisioning New Jersey by : Maxine N. Lurie
Download or read book Envisioning New Jersey written by Maxine N. Lurie and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2017 New Jersey Studies Academic Alliance Author Award, Reference Category See New Jersey history as you read about it! Envisioning New Jersey brings together 650 spectacular images that illuminate the course of the state’s history, from prehistoric times to the present. Readers may think they know New Jersey’s history—the state’s increasing diversity, industrialization, and suburbanization—but the visual record presented here dramatically deepens and enriches that knowledge. Maxine N. Lurie and Richard F. Veit, two leading authorities on New Jersey history, present a smorgasbord of informative pictures, ranging from paintings and photographs to documents and maps. Portraits of George Washington and Molly Pitcher from the Revolution, battle flags from the War of 1812 and the Civil War, women air raid wardens patrolling the streets of Newark during World War II, the Vietnam War Memorial—all show New Jerseyans fighting for liberty. There are also pictures of Thomas Mundy Peterson, the first African American to vote after passage of the Fifteenth Amendment; Paul Robeson marching for civil rights; university students protesting in the 1960s; and Martin Luther King speaking at Monmouth University. The authors highlight the ethnic and religious variety of New Jersey inhabitants with images that range from Native American arrowheads and fishing implements, to Dutch and German buildings, early African American churches and leaders, and modern Catholic and Hindu houses of worship. Here, too, are the great New Jersey innovators from Thomas Edison to the Bell Labs scientists who worked on transistors. Compiled by the authors of New Jersey: A History of the Garden State, this volume is intended as an illustrated companion to that earlier volume. Envisioning New Jersey also stands on its own because essays synthesizing each era accompany the illustrations. A fascinating gold mine of images from the state’s past, Envisioning New Jersey is the first illustrated book on the Garden State that covers its complete history, capturing the amazing transformation of New Jersey over time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this book, the editors have brought to light a little-discussed aspect of ranching: the valuable contributions of women in an industry traditionally thought of as the domain of men. To them, the ranch means many things; it is a business, a home, and a place to raise their children. In their own words, they share their experiences, their successes, and their hardships, and clearly demonstrate the important role women have played, and continue to play, in the history and economy of the ranching industry in Canada.
