Moorestown- Out In The Country and Back To The Country
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
"Moorestown- Out In The Country: The 1940s & 1950s Airport Road Area" is a short historical book about the 1940s and 1950s east Moorestown farms area. The project was coordinated by me with oral histories from past and present residents, primarily being farmers, and me researching old newspapers on microfilm. My Mother as well as several of my Aunts and Uncles were involved in the area as well, living either with my Grandparents or nearby as farmers or tenant farmers. The Moorestown Airport was on what is now Westfield Road. Today several high end housing developments, Open Space, and a school are additions to the changing scenery. To some this book will bring back memories, and to future generations of suburbanites it is at least history. The second book "Back To The Country" is not a stand alone work but a sequel, as I didn't want to keep changing the first booklet. It contains some oral histories and information obtained since the first work, and some that wasn't included which I thought perhaps should have been. There is also some historical reflections of mine. These books previously have only been available as PDF files.
