About the book
"Greater New Jersey sets itself apart from other works about the state by virtue of its inquiry. While contemporary in outlook, the book underscores the role of history in shedding light on the New Jersey and Manhattan of today. Dennis E. Gale examines the complex interactions that knit together a region that has dual citizenship, and he argues that northern New Jersey is undergoing a gradual transformation to become symbolic of a new kind of suburban area, one that borrows culture, image, and economy from a metropolis but also maintains the day-to-day living patterns of heartland America in the face of rapid social change. Readers interested in the puzzling intricacies of modern life will find much to interest them in this account of a regional identity asserting itself in the face of a looming megalopolis."--Jacket.
