The Meadowlands is a 32-square-mile stretch of sweeping wilderness in New Jersey that evokes morbid fantasies of Mafia hits and buried remains. Development has claimed two-thirds of the region, making way for scores of landfills, motels and petrol stations. The growth of poorly planned communities and the impending construction of a massive entertainment and retail complex threaten to change these lands forever. Here, Lutz takes readers into the heart of a wetlands preserve best known for as the final resting place for mob hits and lesser known for its environmental importance.
