Stars: 4
Review by: Mandy Apgar
This covered a
few things quite well and had a pretty decent scope. (Although it does
state the myth of the colonel eating supposedly poisonous tomatoes at
the Salem County Courthouse.) It features the
state's agricultural history and culture - how various indigenous tribes
farmed, stereotypes about New Jersey's road and farming industry and
how they are just that (stereotypes), main products and produce,
evolution of farming equipment, even a very nice section
on how developers are gobbling up land left and right. It even went into
several of the main regulations governing acquisition of the land and
how companies find sneaky ways to underbid and get the property for much
less than its value.
