Wandering Around South Jersey

Book excerpt: Southern New Jersey is a unique area of the Delaware Valley. On one side you have the sprawling suburbs of Philadelphia, and on the other the Pine Barrens, which cover more than one million acres of land, or about one fifth of the state Of New Jersey. Most people do not know what lies in between the strip malls, highways and forests. In Wanderin' Around South Jersey, Ryan Stowinsky explores these areas. Take a trip to the Scarborough Covered Bridge - one of the only covered bridges in New Jersey. Visit Hollowfield Cemetery, a cemetery with no gravestones. The book also explores some of New Jersey's more notable landmarks, including May's Landing's Lucy the Elephant and the world's first dinosaur, the Hadrosaurus. About the Author Ryan Stowinsky is a life-long South Jersey resident who has been exploring and photographing the landscape for years.
