Drew University
Set beneath a canopy of oaks in an area just west of Madison, New Jersey, Drew University proudly calls itself "the University in the Forest." Long before the university was founded in 1867, townspeople affectionately knew the grounds as "the Forest" and held awe and respect for the sprawling woodland. This affectionate look at the university, written by graduates John T. Cunningham and Regina Diverio, recounts the life and times of an institution that has had only ten presidents in its nearly 135-year-long history. It tells the story of the creation of a genuine university in 1928, when Leonard and Arthur Baldwin, East Orange brothers, provided $1.5 million to found, build, and endow the Brothers College of Liberal Arts.

On the Edge of Freedom
In On the Edge of Freedom, David G. Smith breaks new ground by illuminating the unique development of antislavery sentiment in south central Pennsylvania—a border region of a border state with a complicated history of slavery, antislavery activism, and unequal freedom. During the antebellum decades every single fugitive slave escaping by land east of the Appalachian Mountains had to pass through the region, where they faced both significant opportunities and substantial risks. While the hundreds of fugitives traveling through south central Pennsylvania (defined as Adams, Franklin, and Cumberland counties) during this period were aided by an effective Underground Railroad, they also faced s...
