Looking for America on the New Jersey Turnpike - MCLS Virtual Program

Tuesday January 7, 2025
7:00 PM

The New Jersey Turnpike may lack the romantic allure of highways like Route 66, but it might just be a more accurate symbol of American life, representing the nation at both its best and its worst. Angus Gillespie and Michael Rockland wrote Looking for America on the New Jersey Turnpike in 1989, and now they've updated and expanded it, examining how this great American motorway has changed over the past 35 years. Learn how the turnpike has become an icon, inspiring singers and poets, and meet the many people it has affected: the homeowners displaced by its construction, the highway patrol and toll-takers who work on it, and the drivers who speed down its lanes every day.  Angus Kress Gillespie's fascinating account of the best-known landmark in the Garden State will provide you with an entirely new appreciation of the world's most important, widest, and most traveled road.
