Ebook About
Most people think of New Jersey as a suburban-industrial corridor that runs between New York and Philadelphia. Yet in the low center of the state is a near wilderness, larger than most national parks, which has been known since the seventeenth century as the Pine Barrens.The term refers to the predominant trees in the vast forests that cover the area and to the quality of the soils below, which are too sandy and acid to be good for farming. On all sides, however, developments of one kind or another have gradually moved in, so that now the central and integral forest is reduced to about a thousand square miles. Although New Jersey has the heaviest population density of any state, huge segments of the Pine Barrens remain uninhabited. The few people who dwell in the region, the "Pineys," are little known and often misunderstood. Here McPhee uses his uncanny skills as a journalist to explore the history of the region and describe the people—and their distinctive folklore—who call it home.

Book The Pine Barrens Review :



Normally, a book about a large body of land would bore me. However, John McPhee weaves in fascinating stories about the "Pineys", who live there, and very interesting pieces of history. It's like you're there with him.My only peeve is that I wish that he'd covered more about the Quakers in the Pine Barrens area, like in Burlington County, NJ. And, wish that when he wrote about John Wharton, a large philanthropic landowner, included that Wharton was a Quaker. The little McPhee mentioned about Quakers was brief, and not that positive.So, I don't understand why Quakers weren't covered a bit more, and more positively. Sadly, many people I meet, confuse Quakers with the Amish. Lots of misconceptions. Quakers/Friends were in many cases, very liberal/open-minded, outspoken and forward thinking people. And, were industrious, successful, business people. Including around the Pine Barrens areas of NJ. And beyond. Quakers also founded many exceptional colleges (Penn, Cornell, Swarthmore, Bryn Mawr, Johns Hopkins, Haverford, etc.), and the "Friends" schools, including Sidwell Friends in DC.
This is one of, or perhaps the first, book by the brilliant and prolific John McPhee. His subject - an area so remote, so hidden in plain site, so steeped in lore - the Pine Barrens. Millions of cars barrel up and down the NJ Turnpike without giving them a second glance. But a 30 second walk into the mysterious Pine Barrens envelopes one in a primordial stillness. His book may be a bit dated - but he captures the atmosphere of the place perfectly.
