Occupying only 1.6 square miles in central New Jersey, the town of Milltown has seen the surrounding area change from rolling farmland into a home from industry, commerce, business and suburban developments. In one hundred years, the town has shared the changes that have come to Middlesex County and yet still maintained that old-fashioned, small-town feeling. Those who have spent their lives here and those who have come to adopt Milltown as their own will find in this book snapshots which together take us on a journey through Milltown's history, from the days of Bergen's Mill and trolley cars, through the arrival and departure of the Michelin Tire Company, and all the way up to the 1960s. The human side of town's rich and diverse history is also well documented, with images of the famous “Milltown tranquilizers,” the diner, and the old swimming hole.

Scathing and tender, it lifts often into poetry, but comes down hard when it must. Through it all runs the river: sluggish, ancient, dangerous, freighted with America’s sins.” —Robert Macfarlane, author of Underland Kerri Arsenault grew up in the small, rural town of Mexico, Maine, where for over 100 years the community orbited around a paper mill that provided jobs for nearly everyone in town, including three generations of her family. Kerri had a happy childhood, but years after she moved away, she realized the price she paid for that childhood. The price everyone paid. The mill, while providing the social and economic cohesion for the community, also contributed to its demise. Mill Town is a book of narrative nonfiction, investigative memoir, and cultural criticism that illuminates the rise and collapse of the working-class, the hazards of loving and leaving home, and the ambiguous nature of toxics and disease with the central question; Who or what are we willing to sacrifice for our own survival?

Sri Lankan refugee, Sam Selvadurai, fleeing the genocide in his homeland, settles in Milltown, on the northern shore of Lake Ontario; he buys an old hamburger shop and turns it into a gourmet South Asian restaurant, while the town folk eye him with suspicion . The restaurant and most of Milltown are owned by the unscrupulous but charismatic Art Hamilton whose wife committed suicide, while his troubled teenage son, Andy, languishes in a young offenders' prison on the border of town after having emptied a shotgun in the schoolyard, killing two students. Frank Morgan, the town's mayor, is on the take, pushing an amendment through council to expand the local chemical plant - for the benefit of key investor Art Hamilton. Frank lusts after his assistant, Sue Miller, whose husband died at Art's plant and who has her own plan for revenge. Sue is forlornly attracted to the town's drunken lawyer and failed politician, Rick Jones. When Sam's teenage daughter, Sarojini, and Sue's son, Billy, fall in love, and Andy bursts out of prison, the town erupts in violence and disarray. The forces of racial prejudice, parental neglect, sexual harassment, teen pregnancy, and corporate greed meet in a perfect storm in Milltown. The body count mounts, and the town's inhabitants are forced to examine their own lives before casting the first stone. As the solitary lighthouse swivels and shines its light into the nooks and crannies of Milltown, Sam asks, "Is there evil here too?" "Shane Joseph is fearless in having his characters suffer within incidents that a lesser writer would balk at. Milltown is a riveting novel." Ronald Mackay - author Fortunate Isle "Milltown takes the reader on a virtual merry-go-round of crooked industrialists, abusive politicians, unwanted pregnancies, psychopathic killers, drunken lawyers, Sri Lankan immigrants and inept mobsters" Ben Antao - author Money & Politics

The Milltown Boys at Sixty is a story like no other, giving both an insider and an outsider view of the ‘Milltown Boys’, exploring the nature of an ethnographic relationship based on research about their experiences of the criminal justice system. A group classically labelled as delinquents, drug-takers and drop-outs, the Boys were also, in many different ways, fathers, friends and family men, differentially immersed in the labour market, in very different family relationships and now very differently connected to criminal activity. Williamson has written books capturing their experiences over the fifty years of his continued association with them: about their teenage years; and twenty years later, in middle-age. This book is about them as they pass the age of 60, providing a personal account of the relationship between Williamson and the Boys, and the distinctive – perhaps even controversial – research methodology that enabled the mapping of their lives. It provides a unique and detailed insight into the ways in which the lives of the Milltown Boys that started with such shared beginnings have unfolded in so many diverse and fascinating ways. These accounts will be of interest to the lay reader curious about the way others have managed (or failed to manage) their lives, the professional who works with those living, often struggling, on the wrong side of the tracks, and the academic researching and teaching about social exclusion, substance misuse, criminal justice transitions and the life course.
