New Jersey

Hop aboard the Blue Comet for a ride to Atlantic City or croon along with a Hainesport ghost. New Jersey history can keep you up late, so stop by an all-night diner. The moonlight only adds charm to the Victorian architecture of Cape May, while Richard Biegenwald’s murderous legacy casts a shadow over the Jersey Shore. From William Carlos Williams setting pen to paper in Rutherford to the joy of a Clementon lake in summer, these New Jersey history books make time for the Garden State. [View all New Jersey books]
