January 2020: What Made New Jersey

The historian David McCullough has said, “History is who we are and why we are the way we are.” Perhaps that’s why we find history so intriguing. It explains not just the past, but the present, with a hint of the future.

Yes, history can be instructive, but it can be fun and fascinating, too. This month’s deep dive into New Jersey history is all of the above. Our coverage takes us back to Colonial days, and fast-forwards through several centuries of innovation, industriousness and creative triumphs, as well as social upheaval and human tragedy.  Rest assured, there’s never a dull decade.
