Book excerpt: "This book is both an inspiring account of public interest law at its best and a sobering assessment of how 'the soul of suburbia' continues to resist social justice. . . . an unexpectedly moving account of hope, idealism, and intelligence." --The New York Times Book Review "A well-written, exhaustively researched account of the legal battle to open New Jersey's suburbs to the poor . . . The authors actually took the time to talk to the lawyers and litigants on both sides of the controversy. Their chronicle of the legal developments is informed, and much improved, by the flesh-and-blood stories of those who actually lived the case. . . . a cautionary and inspiring tale." --The Philadelphia Inquirer "The authors of Our Town in particular enable readers to see historical continuity in legal and popular discussions of race, realism, and housing patterns in American society. Our Town also explores the challenges to public policy raised by the existence of residential segregation patterns." --The Nation " This book] is valuable both as a case study of judicial activism and its consequences and as a detailed anaylsis of suburban attitudes regarding race, class, and property." --Urban Affairs Review
Download or read book Along the Cooper River Camden to Haddonfield written by Robert A. Shinn and Kevin Cook with the Camden County Historical Society and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2015 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey through South Jersey towns and villages along the Cooper River, and their unique role in the long and rich history of the area. The Cooper River is a meandering tributary of the Delaware River in Camden County with a rich cultural heritage. Along the Cooper River, English Quakers found safe haven from religious persecution in Colonial times, and General Washington's soldiers fought for control of Cooper's Ferry during the American Revolution. The river was ideal for industry in Camden, where many immigrants worked in the factories along its banks. From 1925 to 1928, landscape architect Charles Leavitt Jr. designed the plans for the 550-acre Cooper River Park. From 1935 to 1939, Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration carried out the plans to create open, gently sloping landscapes and wooded areas for recreation by dredging meadows and tidal wetlands. Along the Cooper River: Camden to Haddonfield focuses on the communities of Camden, Pennsauken, Cherry Hill, Collingswood, Haddon Township, and Haddonfield and how each of them has played a unique role in the long and rich history of the river and its evolution into a nationally significant recreational area.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Centennial History of Camden Methodism One hundred years marks a great epoch in any life. A centennial celebration is always a great event. Perhaps there is none more vitally significant than the centenary of a church life. One hundred years having sped and gone since the beginning of a church in Camden, N. J., it seems that more than ordinary attention should be given thereto. In April, 1809, under the direction of Rev. Richard Sneath a class was formed in Camden with James Duer as the first leader. From the nucleus of seven persons the church was started, until now there are about 7,000 members and sixteen Methodist Episcopal churches. The Methodist Episcopal Church being the first of all churches in this city - save a Friend's Meeting House, on Mt. Vernon street, built in 1801 - the history of the city cannot be related without generous reference thereto. The Centennial having been appropriately celebrated with the co-operation of all the churches, it seemed very necessary that this great event should have more than a passing notice. Hence, there was a determination by the Official Boards of all these churches to give the history of this event permanent form. Hence, historical data having been contributed by each of the sixteen churches, the collation of all this material into one book became a logical necessity.

Download or read book Camden County written by A. Burgess Jennings and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2014 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Camden County extends southward from the Virginia line as a peninsula between the North and Pasquotank Rivers into the Albemarle Sound. Named for Revolutionary sympathizer Sir Charles Pratt, the first Earl of Camden, the county was formed on May 9, 1777. Construction of the 22-mile Dismal Swamp Canal began in 1793. The Battle of South Mills was fought on April 19, 1862, in an unsuccessful attempt by the Union to destroy the lock at South Mills. Camden County has continued as a rural community with farming, fishing, and logging as its citizens' primary occupations. Over time, horses, mules, and oxen have been replaced with tractors and combines. The Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge was created in 1973, and the Dismal Swamp Canal, which has survived as the oldest artificial waterway in the United States, continues to serve boaters on the Intracoastal Waterway today. Camden County showcases the rich agricultural heritage of this North Carolina coastal county.
