Palisades Park
2 journalers for this copy...
Brennert has a gift for spinning multigenerational family sagas that will keep you reading far past your bedtime. Through the lens of the Stopka family, we get a glimpse of early-to-mid 20th century life in New Jersey, along with watching Palisades Park grow into a beloved summer escape for millions of visitors. Much like Palisades Park itself, there's something for everyone in this book!
Sharing with another bookcrosser. Enjoy!
Thanks so much for this RABCK! When I returned from vacation it was waiting for me! I am going to have my bookclub read it for the month of of April.
Midwinter has said it all. Alan Brennert does a beautiful job of describing the park and those of us who grew up in Northern NJ will never forget the good times we had there. Y Bookclub will be discussing g this book in April, and after lending it to a few friends it will be made available.
