Art of the State: New Jersey

The Garden State-home to the prized beefsteak tomato-finally gets the respect it deserves in this unique celebration of New Jersey's people, places, and past. From Thomas Alva Edison and Woodrow Wilson to Frank Sinatra and Bruce Springsteen, from Princeton University's ivy-covered halls to Atlantic City's beaches and casinos, from Washington's crossing the Delaware to Orson Welles' broadcast of The War of the Worlds, this handsome volume shows why New Jersey is truly a microcosm of America. 134 illustrations, 115 in full color
