Middletown Township: Volume II (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780738564005)

Middletown Township, a fascinating visual journey through New Jersey's past, will delight and educate both the avid historian and the casual observer.

Middletown Township: Volume II is a fascinating collection of over 220 vintage views of this venerable township, and it explores in even greater depth the rich and historic fabric of the community first brought to life last year in Middletown Township.

In this second volume, the author has collected an extraordinary diversity of images from a wide range of sources, and these images bring to life the development of the township and the lives and aspirations of its people. We meet the people who gave the township character; witness the changing landscape; visit places of worship; marvel at the growth of business and industry; and explore the development of the individual neighborhoods. These scenes of the familiar and unfamiliar will bring to local people and visitors alike a new appreciation of the richness and depth of the township's history.

Author Randall Gabrielan is president of the Middletown Township Historical Society and the township's official historian. With Middletown Township: Volume II he has combined a compelling selection of images with years of accumulated knowledge to create a history that is both entertaining and educational.
