| Publisher Description: This lavishly illustrated history of "the Shore" chronicles the people and events that shaped the physical, economic, and social development of New Jersey's coastal resort communities. Packed with archival photos, this charming tribute to bygone days recaptures the glory days of the boardwalks, the spectacles of parades and festivals, the drama of the coast's worst storms, and many other aspects of life on the Shore. Enjoy seeing everything from the heyday of Atlantic City to the Methodist camps to the plunging neckline that made Marilyn Monroe persona non grata. Jersey Shore is a treasured keepsake for the area's 14 million annual visitors and for the millions more with fond summertime memories. |
