Cranford: Volume II

By Robert Fridlington, Lawrence Fuhro, Lawrence Fuhro

Book Overview

Only 18 miles south of behemoth New York City, Cranford is an adorable small city, nicknamed the Venice of New Jersey.

Residents of Cranford greeted the publication of a photographic history of their community with tremendous enthusiasm in 1995--for the first time, significant people and events in the township's past were celebrated in a vivid record available to all. The authors of that volume--Robert Fridlington and Lawrence Fuhro--have worked together again to produce an all-new second volume on Cranford that includes many recently discovered images. Cranford Volume II covers the history of the town from 1871 to 1960, and highlights its role as a riverside resort and suburb. Images of well-known Cranford residents, such as pure-food crusader Alice Lakey and beloved high school coach J. Seth Weekly are also featured, documenting the unique contributions of these citizens to their hometown.
