Ghost Towns: And Other Quirky Places in the New Jersey Pine Barrens

The Pine Barrens of New Jersey contain more ghost towns, some say, than the entire American West. In Ghost Towns and Other Quirky Places in the New Jersey Pine Barrens, Barbara Solem-Stull tells the story of the towns that rose up around the iron furnaces, glass factories, paper mills, cranberry farms, and brick-making establishments of the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries. Loaded with easy-to-use maps and more than 100 photographs and illustrations, the book provides driving directions and self-guided walking tours of many of the Pine Barrensâ€™ most intriguing historic sites and ruins. This is a unique field guide for anyone interested in reading about the history of Pinelands ghost towns and in exploring these long-ago communities firsthand.
