Once Upon A Time in Tuckerton
An Historical Novel
By Kathleen Cortese: Preserving local history is the reason Kathleen Cortese gives for writing Once Upon a Time in Tuckerton. She was hooked on the town from the moment she heard “Tucker’s Island was the first summer resort at the Jersey Shore”, and that in the late eighteenth century, Tuckerton, New Jersey was one of the largest shipbuilding towns in America. It was not until she heard whispers surrounding the mysterious activities going on at the German-built wireless radio station on Hickory Island, that she decided to write about the era from 1912 to 1925 in Tuckerton’s rich history. This novel contains information and photos about actual locations and residents who lived in Tuckerton during the mysterious activities at the German-built wireless radio tower.
