Product Description
This copy of "Iron in the Pines" has ben SIGNED by Arthur D.
Pierce on the half-title page! The story of New Jersey's Ghost Towns and Bog Iron.
Deep in the heart of southern New Jersey, forty minutes from Philadelphia and ninety from New York City, lies an area of more than 100,000 acres of sprawling wilderness almost unbroken by marks of civilization.
Many people know and love these wooded acres, but not all of them are aware that here was once a thriving industrial area.
Iron was king then, a century and more ago, and around that industry there arose a rustic feudal economy.
"Iron in the Pines" is a book not only for Ne Jerseyans, but for readers of American history everywhere.
Small closed tear on front of the dust jacket and some signs of foxing on the back cover.
Overall, a very attractive copy of the original 1957 issue with the page appearing almost unread.
