Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well-known for its hunting, fishing, and sea-faring ship captains, the town of Barnegat, New Jersey, was also a thriving center of industry and modern technology. Steam locomotives once raged through the pines, and over four thousand boats were built at the Perrine Boat Works. A downtown business district thrived, and cottage industries-- like glass blowing and silkworm cultivation--also left their marks. The history of the Barnegat area, which is chronicled vividly in this marvelous new photographic history by Kevin Hughes, is truly a varied and fascinating one.

Closed Sea tells the remarkable history of a fascinating place, a place of great beauty, danger and opportunity, a place that has cast its spell on generations of people.

Download or read book Barnegat Light written by Reilly Platten Sharp for the Barnegat Light Historical Society & Museum and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the history of Barnegat Light and journey through time with Author and Curator for the Barnegat Light Historical Society & Museum, Reilly Platten Sharp. At the mouth of Barnegat Inlet, Native Americans, whalers, pirates, fishermen, and revolutionaries once lazed, fished, fought, and died on Barnegat Light's sands before modern progress and big-city developers tried to build the next Atlantic City. Treacherous shoals just offshore claimed the lives of thousands of immigrants seeking new starts in America before the current lighthouse was designed in 1856 by the later victorious general of Gettysburg, George Meade. The Ashley House, one of the first shore resort hotels in the country, went up in 1821. In the 1880s, Benjamin Archer and William Bailey of Camden built bigger hotels, cottages, and roads in town, even bringing the railroad. Barnegat Light never became a bustling tourist town like her developers dreamed, but a close-knit community of fishermen, lifesavers and their families have endured for generations to call the still small town of Barnegat Light home.

Since it is such a vacationerOCOs paradise, the Atlantic coast has the most to do. We start with the northernmost Shore county, Monmouth, and work straight down the coast to Cape May. Although these counties revolve around the ocean and summertime, look closer; they have a lot more to offer than just the beach and boardwalk. Sure, the beaches are 127 miles of pure enjoyment, but there are flea markets, historic sites, and some unusual attractions, such as a zoo for sick and injured animals. So if you donOCOt swim, dislike seagulls, and have a natural aversion to sand, fear not. You just have to look around, and youOCOll discover choices galore at the Jersey Shore."
