Famous and Forgotten Ships and Shipwrecks of the Jersey Shore, an Archaeological Odyssey

Hosted by Monmouth University Associate Dean of the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Richard F. Veit, Ph.D.

The treacherous Jersey shore has been the untimely grave of thousands of seafaring vessels. This well-illustrated presentation examines a select group of New Jersey ships and shipwrecks reflecting the importance of maritime transportation to the history of the state. An eclectic range of vessels is examined, from Native American dugout canoes, to colonial privateers, a Durham boat, Civil War submarine, and 20th-century ocean liners.
