VIDEO: Civil War in Ridgewood
Video produced for Schoolhouse Museum exhibit on the Civil War years features Harlan Coben as narrator
Life in Ridgewood and the surrounding area during the Civil War was decidedly different than it is now. Many didn't attend school, fashions were quite different and families often found themselves on the opposite sides of battle.
Gerri Abdoo produced a fantastic video on the exhibit "The Civil War Years" at the Schoolhouse Museum, narrated by Ridgewood's most famous author, Harlan Coben.
Visit the Schoolhouse Museum on Franklin Turnpike if you get a chance. It's a really cool exhibit!
