Overview

Less Stately Mansions: the 18th and 19th century churches of Hunterdon County, New Jersey is a richly illustrated guide to all 101 of the early and historic churches and meetinghouses still standing in Hunterdon County. Frank Greenagel, author of The New Jersey Churchscape and four other volumes on the old churches of New Jersey, and developer of the widely popular website, www.njchurchscape.com, explores and explains the history of Hunterdon's religious buildings, from the earliest meetinghouses through the Greek Revival and Gothic Revival temples right up to the late-Victorian shingle and carpenter Gothic churches that closed the nineteenth century. The book goes well beyond an inventory of the old churches of the county; in fact, it might serve well as a basic reference on architectural styles and construction traditions during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
