Explore the first seventy-five years of Ocean City, New Jersey's grand history through this postcard pictorial. History comes alive with over 250 beautiful black and white and hand-tinted photos of the beaches, the strand, and many places of play and worship in this much-loved city. Bounded on the east by the Atlantic Ocean and the west by the inland waters of Great Egg Harbor Bay, Ocean City's location, only sixty-five miles from Philadelphia, has made it a popular summer playground ever since its founding as a Christian seaside resort in 1879. The city has come to be a vibrant community of full-time residents as well as loyal summer vacationers. This book illustrates the city's many entertainments, including the serenity and natural beauty that first drew its founders.
Ocean City, which calls itself "America's Greatest Family Resort," is today best known for its wide, clean beaches and a yearly bayfront celebration called the "Night in Venice." Founded in 1879 as a Christian seaside resort, the island community still maintains some of its early traditions including prohibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages--while striving to continue its long-standing reputation as a family-oriented resort. This remarkable new photographic history features such historic sites as the home of the town's first resident and famous old-time restaurants like Chris', Hogate's, and Watson's. Several rare pictures of the shipwrecked Sindia and its cargo are also included, as well as photographs of Ocean City's most well-known citizens, Princess Grace Kelly and author Gay Talese.
