Book Description:
Jersey City in Vintage Postcards features selected postcard images, some actual photographs, that depict Jersey City’s early-twentieth-century rise as one of the Northeast’s great urban areas. Many of the views seen here remained intact into the 1940s and 1950s. More than two hundred thirty postcards and photographs, organized geographically, also suggest an evolving Jersey City, while well researched captions describe the changing cityscape.
Author Bio: Jersey City native and prolific Arcadia author Randall Gabrielan has crafted an informative and incisive look at Jersey City in its period of power and prosperity with Jersey City in Vintage Postcards.
