With over two hundred historical photographs, Allentown and Upper Freehold Township offers a fascinating overview of two communities in Monmouth County that are closely tied together historically and culturally. Allentown and Upper Freehold Township are located at the western border of a county that nearly spans the state from the Atlantic Ocean to a few miles from the Delaware River. This book explores how the county's last rural landscape, Upper Freehold Township, deals with the increasing pressure of development and the effects of these changes on the charming community of Allentown. See the pastoral beauty of farms such as Merino Hill and the small settlements that dot Upper Freehold. Discover the "most crooked Main Street in America," at Imlaystown, the creamery at Cream Ridge, and the important landmarks of the Old Yellow Meeting House and the Allentown mill.

Focusing on the development of a single African American community in eastern New Jersey, Hodges examines the experience of slavery and freedom in the rural north. This unique social history addresses many long held assumptions about the experience of slavery and emancipation outside the south. For example, by tracing the process by which whites maintained "a durable architecture of oppression" and a rigid racial hierarchy, it challenges the notions that slavery was milder and that racial boundaries were more permeable in the north. Monmouth County, New Jersey, because of its rich African American heritage and equally well-preserved historical record, provides an outstanding opportunity to study the rural life of an entire community over the course of two centuries. Hodges weaves an intricate pattern of life and death, work and worship, from the earliest settlement to the end of the Civil War.
