NORTH BRUNSWICK, N.J. - Feb. 16, 2015 - PRLog -- Local author Linda J. Barth will be signing copies of her book, The Millstone Valley: Through Time, at the Littleton Costco on Saturday, February 28^th. Boasting over 185 images depicting scenes of days gone by, the book explores the history of this unique New Jersey locality.

Driving along the Millstone Valley Scenic Byway is a trip back into the history of central New Jersey. The Villages of East Millstone, Millstone, Blackwells Mills, Griggstown, Rocky Hill, and Kingston offer the visitor a glimpse into the life of the valley as it was and still is. This natural north-south corridor in central New Jersey exhibits rich layers of history – from the earliest Dutch settlement through skirmishes of the Revolutionary War to the canal era – live on. New settlers were eager to clear this fertile land for their farms and villages. These roads also follow the same routes used by General George Washington as he led his weary, freezing soldiers, to Morristown after the crossing the Delaware and the victories at Trenton and Princeton during the American Revolution.

The Millstone Valley Through Timemakes history come alive through a charming glimpse of the rural past surviving in the heart of America’s most densely populated state.
