Founded in 1666, Newark was a thriving town long before much of New Jersey was even populated. That early lead widened as this growing metropolis became a manufacturing center in the early 19th century. Brad R. Tuttle's How Newark Became Newark charts the uneven progress of the city as it struggled with market competition, economic downturns, and changing population patterns. This lively narrative history of New Jersey's largest city adds new depth of a place that most of us think of "New York's little sister."
