Summary |
Award-winning journalist, Dr. Donna Clovis, recounts the stories of Princeton, New Jersey, in the early 1900s through the late 1950s through the eyes of two of the oldest citizens by means of interviews, diaries, and articles. The synchronicity of being at the right place at the right time for the interviews, locations, and journals plays a major role in the construction of the book. |
Note |
References to this book as fiction: "How synchronicity helped me write a novel....(Foreword, page ix). I self-published the work as Plantation...in 2000. Today, in 2015 I realized that the title should be changed. I renamed the book to Quantum Leaps in Princeton's Place....I realized how important this part was needed as the Foreword to the novel"--(Foreword, page xi). |
