| Abstract | "The unique history of Egg Harbor City, from the founding of the settlement until the time when the town lost its German identity, has never been told. The comprehensive German-American histories (Faust, Cronau, Bosse and others) have ignored it. The various series of periodicals on German-American history (Deutsche Pionier, Deutsch-Amerikanische Geschichtsblätter, American German Review) never dealt systematically with the subject. The publications of the New Jersey Historical Society . . . yielded no information. The author . . . was particularly fortunate in locating an almost complete file of the most important German newspaper of the town, the Egg Harbor Pilot. Its former owner, Mr. A. H. Kroekel of Philadelphia, made this wealth of untapped source material available to the author and [has] placed the entire file in the Rutgers University Library." |
