Vernon Township (Images of America: New Jersey)

Rating:
Summary: A Local take
Review: I may be writing this because I'm a life long Vernon resident, or that I am very interested in history, but I highly recommend this book for everyone. It shows the slow transition of Anytown, USA: from small farming village, to large farming township, to the coming of the railroad, which brought on a massive mining buisness, and then the introduction of the automobile, which brought tourism: two ski resorts (Well, more like one and a half nowadays) and even a water park. This is a must read for North Jersey residents, and it makes and excellent coffee table book for the locals. This is the book for history buffs who prefer looking to reading.
