Description: Eatontown and Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, Images of America, Paperback This book is a wonderful journey into a rich and diverse past--a past that will prove fascinating to resident and visitor alike.For more than 200 years Eatontown, Oceanport, and West Long Branch shared a proud history as one township, and this book covers that community's heritage from the Colonial and Victorian eras through the 1950s. It also highlights the importance of Fort Monmouth, a US Army communications research facility that has now been listed as a maritime site on the New Jersey Coast Heritage Trail. Through the pages of this book we meet presidents and magnates; read local newspapers from over a hundred years ago; learn the history of the Jersey Shore's horse-racing tradition; discover ghosts and grisly crimes; and experience war, industrial revolution, the coming of the railroad, and great disasters from our past. Above all, we meet the people who have created Eatontown over the centuries at work, at play, in church, and at school. This book is a wonderful journey into a rich and diverse past--a past that will prove fascinating to resident and visitor alike.
