Prospect Park; a borough built largely by Dutch immigrants; has been home to successive waves of residents and ethnic groups since its founding in 1901. It is a place that embraces its past to create its future. This fine volume details the boroughs story of change and continuity--the American immigration story as it unfolded on one square mile on a North Jersey hill side overlooking the Passaic Valley below and New York City on the far horizon. Part history lesson; part family photo album; part anthropology study; and part sociological profile; this a laudable addition to the Images of America series of community studies.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
