Seven Bridges Road: From the Past to the Future - Paperback

by Kenneth W. Able (Author)

A vivid cultural and environmental history of the Sheepshead Meadows area in the Mullica River Estuary. These meadows and adjacent islands form the 5,982-acre Great Bay Wildlife Management Area-a place that shares coastal New Jersey traits but stands apart through its exceptionally low human population and minimal man-made impacts. Its protected marshes and waterways rank among the most unique on the entire East Coast. Kenneth W. Able, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Marine and Coastal Sciences at Rutgers University, chronicles this ecologically vital region from pre-European times to the present and offers timely insights into its future amid shifting climate patterns.
