New Jersey Women's Heritage Trail

Campbell BM (ed). 2005. New Jersey Women's Heritage Trail. National Park Service, New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, New Jersey Historic Preservation Office. New Jersey

Published book describing the history of New Jersey through locations associated with historic women of the state. From the book: "The New Jersey Women's Heritage Trail will lead you on a journey throughout the state, using historic places to tell the collective story of a few of these famous women, and a few of the more private women, who contributed to the agricultural, industrial, labor and domestic history of the state. Although women always have comprised over half of the state's population, the tales of women's contributions to New Jersey's history often have been omitted from our telling of history. The Heritage Trail brings to life the vital role of women in New Jersy's past and present." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the New Jersey Historic Preservation Office, administered by the State Tribal Local Plans and Grants Division.
