Summary: Remembering Morris Plains
Comment: Having grown up in Morris Plains I was fascinated by the pictorial history contained in the book. The names appearing in the text describing the 50's and 60's were names common at my kitchen table. Two generations of my family were barbers in Morris Plains so my family was well-grounded in Morris Plains history. The book (Mr. Myers lived just down the road from my home) is an extremely accurate record of the establishment and growth of the area and captures the "home town" feel that I remember so fondly. It is a concise look into a simpler past that is recalled with great joy by people all over the United States, with special interest for those of this area.

Summary: Morris Plains, the Community of Caring
Comment: What a wonderful book for anyone who has either grown up or lived in Morris Plains, NJ, the "Community of Caring." Through photos, many of which date from the turn of the century to the early 1950's, the book tells the story of a small, friendly town in Northern New Jersey where even today, you get the feeling that "everyone knows your name." It was interesting to find out about the history of some of the first people who shaped the community. Also intriguing, was seeing pictures of the many buildings in "the downtown" and homes that are still standing today. To quote the end of the book, I think many people who have lived in Morris Plains could attest, "The more things change, the more they remain the same." Again, what a wonderful gift for anyone associated with Morris Plains, the "Community of Caring!"
