Book excerpt: Experience New Jersey as you never have before, in this historical, hysterical guide to the Garden State. You from Jersey? What exit? Go ahead and laugh. But watch it, New Jersey is home to legendary tough guys like Tony Soprano and Frank Sinatra, and no one knows for sure if Jimmy Hoffa’s buried in the Meadowlands Stadium. Though many believe ‘New Jersey culture’ is an oxymoron, something conjured up while inhaling the fumes on the Turnpike, your Uncle John, a connoisseur of the Garden State, is out to prove them wrong. Take the plunge into N.J., and see why it’s like nowhere else - from Springsteen’s Asbury Park and Trump’s Atlantic City to the ivy walls of Princeton and the tidy townships to the west.
