"Hackensack is heavily featured in the book, which is fitting because of the role it played during the Revolutionary War," Frazza said. "The book has images of the Enoch Poor statue, the burned courthouse site in the Green, the First Reformed Church Cemetery, and the 'Soldiers of the Revolution' gravestone in the Reformed Dutch Cemetery."

The book also contains images from many other towns throughout Bergen County, such as Alpine, Dumont, Englewood, Fort Lee, Garfield, Hillsdale, Ho-Ho-Kus, Leonia, Mahwah, River Edge, River Vale, Tenafly, and Wallington.
