Abandoned or Forgotten: Overlooked Corners of South Jersey

by Ryan Stowinsky

Despite being part of the most densely populated state in the United States, much of southern New Jersey is uninhabited Pine Barrens, marshland, and even shoreline, hiding secrets such as ghost towns, forgotten cemeteries, and other little-known historical places largely overlooked by most people. Abandoned or Overlooked Corners of South Jersey is a collection of several of these sites found throughout the southern half of the state, both on and off the beaten path. Explore long abandoned towns in the Pine Barrens and even along the shore. Discover relics from both World Wars on the beach and in the woods. Visit the site where the world's first nearly complete dinosaur skeleton was unearthed. Learn about New Jersey's answer to the Boston Tea Party during the American Revolution. In these pages, author and photographer Ryan Stowinsky takes the reader to these sites and several more. With dozens of photographs and directions to most locations, readers can discover the history that is hidden all around them.
