Description:If you’re a native of Millville, New Jersey, you’ve no doubt heard of the city’s notorious “Bloody Third Ward.” This book peeks into the history of the scrabble, blue-collar, working class neighborhood and how it earned its nickname.

The neighborhood was the scene of a 1917 murder spree, numerous speakeasies and the source of works by famed poet Carl Sandburg, appalled at the flaunting of child labor laws. But faithful “Third Warders” proudly point out that there were fond times growing up in the shadows of the glass and cotton factories. And lest anyone forget the Great Cotton Mill Fire, Millville’s esteemed Artist Laureate Pat Witt was afforded a front-row seat to capture the blazing inferno in an acclaimed painting for all to see and remember.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
