DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Report and Catalogue of the First Exhibition of Newark Industries: Exclusively, 1872 The first Exhibition of Newark Industries opened at the Rink, on Washington street, August 20th, 1872, and closed on the 11th of October following, having had on exhibition articles of an estimated value of about $900,000 and been visited by some 130,000 people, including many of the most illustrious persons of this country, distinguished persons from abroad, representatives of the leading journals, and of almost every state and clime of the world. The success which attended the Exhibition was beyond the most sanguine anticipations, when is taken into consideration the fact, that, except in the minds of a few citizens, the great majority of our people had not given the subject particular attention, and were therefore not prepared to assist in or endorse the project; and that a large number refused to lend their aid to the development of a grand failure, and also, that many thought Newark would be undertaking too great a task, not considering there was material enough at hand to compete in a favorable degree with the Expositions held elsewhere; the difficulties surrounding the efforts of the gentlemen who instituted and carried forward the enterprise, can readily be divined, and the brilliant success in which the Exhibition resulted, was exceedingly gratifying. Notwithstanding the many doubts and fears, and the predictions of a failure, the opening night of the Exhibition - with the buildings barely completed - and the goods not fully arranged - proved not only an unprecedented success in point of numbers, but showed conclusively that the inception of the enterprise was based on a correct appreciation of public taste, and the success of the Exhibition was at once assured. Not only has the Exhibition therefore given the people of Newark a better knowledge of the industries carried on within the city's limits, but the novelty of the Exhibition as comprising the products of Newark only, attracted the attention of people in other states, and residents abroad, and has given Newark the distinction, as a manufacturing city, she has so long merited.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor the first time in forty years, the story of one of America's most maligned cities is told in all its grit and glory. With its open-armed embrace of manufacturing, Newark, New Jersey, rode the Industrial Revolution to great prominence and wealth that lasted well into the twentieth century. In the postwar years, however, Newark experienced a perfect storm of urban troublesùpolitical corruption, industrial abandonment, white flight, racial conflict, crime, poverty. Cities across the United States found themselves in similar predicaments, yet Newark stands out as an exceptional case. Its saga reflects the rollercoaster ride of Everycity U.S.A., only with a steeper rise, sharper turns, and a much more dramatic plunge. How Newark Became Newark is a fresh, unflinching popular history that spans the city's epic transformation from a tiny Puritan village into a manufacturing powerhouse, on to its desperate struggles in the twentieth century and beyond. After World War II, unrest mounted as the minority community was increasingly marginalized, leading to the wrenching civic disturbances of the 1960s. Though much of the city was crippled for years, How Newark Became Newark is also a story of survival and hope. Today, a real estate revival and growing population are signs that Newark is once again in ascendance.
