Historians reach deal for Revolutionary War battlefield
PRINCETON, N.J. — Historical activists on Monday announced an agreement to save a portion of a Revolutionary War battlefield in New Jersey from development.
The Civil War Trust told The Associated Press it has an agreement to buy nearly 15 acres of land across from Princeton Battlefield State Park for $4 million. The group has raised $1.4 million to buy the land from the Institute for Advanced Study and will now begin fundraising for the rest, spokesman Jim Campi said.
