Lorenzo F. Fisler's A Local History of Camden, published in pamphlet form in 1858, is the first stand-alone history to describe Camden City and its rise from a simple colonial ferry hub to a growing urban center in the 1850s. Fisler provides detailed descriptions of Camden's local institutions: churches, public buildings, ferries, schools, newspapers, the board of health, water department, and fire companies. Discover Camden in the mid-nineteenth century as it begins its rise to an economic juggernaut. Republished by the South Jersey Culture & History Center.
