| "Forgotten Towns of Southern New Jersey", by Henry C. Beck. Written in the 1930's, it describes towns that have disappeared in the area I grew up. I learned about the history of the area. I also drove around looking at the sites and found old buildings in the woods plus a cemetary long forgotten on top of a hill in the woods. I also discovered the church we got married in from this book. I discussed this book with my wifes grandmother. To my suprise, she worked for the author long ago. Small world, isn't it? | |

| I read a book once called From Cradle to Grave, about a true story of a women who repeatedly killed her young babies and children. The last of the babies to die before they discovered what had been happening was named Tammy Lynn. This story touched me so much that i almost named my own last daughter after her, i only changed my mind in the last month or so xxx | |
