Overview
Gordon's is the standard nineteenth-century gazetteer for New Jersey. Mr. Gordon, who traversed virtually the entire state in compiling his book, begins the lengthy "prefatory chapter" with precise geographical and geological descriptions of the state's terrain, climate, bodies of water, roads, canals, railroads, and so forth. The gazetteer itself, which extends an additional 175 pages, covers every nook and cranny in the state, from small streams, hills, and hamlets to townships, cities, and entire counties.Synopsis
