Synopsis
In the 18th and 19th centuries, covered bridges dotted the landscape of New Jersey, providing safe passage to travelers. Forty-five covered bridges once crossed waterways in all corners of the state. Perhaps the most extraordinary examples of these wooden bridges were found along the western border, crossing the Delaware River into neighboring Pennsylvania. These bridges were feats of construction and engineering but were ultimately unable to prevent the inevitable fate of almost all the covered bridges of the state, namely ice, floods, and fire as well as the development of new materials and technology. Today, only one covered bridge survives in New Jersey. The Green Sergeant s covered bridge in Hunterdon County was constructed over the Wickecheoke Creek in 1872 and has stood the test of time. New Jersey s Covered Bridges showcases the rich transportation history of these structures and pictorially honors the lost ones.", In the 18th and 19th centuries, covered bridges dotted the landscape of New Jersey, providing safe passage to travelers.

    Excellent transaction. Fast delivery. But, the Seller needs to use better packaging for shipping. The thin poly-mailer, that he used, had multiple holes in it by the time the parcel arrived on my doorstep. Fortunately, the book was not damaged. Very good price. The book is in "very good" to "like new" condition. i am very happy that the book's appearance exactly matches the Seller's description in his listing. Would buy from this Seller again! ...Thank you!!
