My Column: State Line Hawk Watch
A view of State Line Lookout and the Hudson River beyond in Alpine. By Jim WrightSpecial to The Record |…
For the past couple of years, in my spare time, I have been working on a ghost story set in 1938 in Ho-Ho-Kus, Allendale and Mahwah.
The key event in the story is an actual armed bank robbery in Allendale 75 years ago next month, so I have been motivated to get the whole thing done — complete with all sorts of rarely seen archival photographs and the nifty cover photo above, by Barbara Socor.
The 24-page book will be available as an eBook download soon. Hard cover and soft cover versions are a possibility as well if there's much interest. E-mail me at celeryfarm@gmail.com. Stay tuned — and feel free to spread the word!
Very cool! Looking forward to it.
