5.0 out of 5 starsThis is the Book
By Ben Charland on May 30, 2008
Format: Paperback
I'm a new comer to the New Jersey Shore and for a guide to its history: this is the book. From Cape May to Asbury Park it provides an excellent introduction to the history of all the important shore points. After a quick glance through Jersey Shore I felt full of great stories, fun facts, and general knowledge that I'll most definitely be inflicting upon my beach companions this summer. This book has it all: from high diving horses to beached whales. In addition to nature's wonders, through illustrations it captures a fascinating array of the contraptions, accommodations and carnival rides built to bring that boardwalk experienced to the next level. I picked up a few of Salvini's other New Jersey titles when I bought this one, and like those, Jersey Shore is carefully researched and passionately executed. Emil Salvini has a unique skill for selecting interesting and compelling images and I can only imagine he's quite the pale fellow for spending so much time in historical societies and in archives finding them. As an author, he clearly relishes this story. Perhaps best of all, Jersey Shore will make for great beach reading this summer. Each illustration is accompanied by short historical sketches and insightful reflections which keeps it upbeat and entertaining. Like the actual Jersey Shore, I'll be dippin' in and out of this book for a long time to come.

By Linda KM on January 13, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I got this as a gift for my dad. he grew up in NJ, as did I. The Jersey shore has changed a lot, especially since Hurricane Sandy. This is a great photo book of the way things were. Even my step mother from England enjoyed viewing this pictorial history book

4.0 out of 5 starsGave as a gift to owner of a shore house
By Jennifer Hollister on February 16, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I guess I thought this would have more pictures, but it is full of info, lots of text. I gave it to a shore house owner, thinking it would be good reading at the beach. I haven't gotten feedback from the recipient.

5.0 out of 5 starsgreat coffee table book
By Sheila Clague on January 27, 2010
Format: Paperback
This book is a great find for anybody who loves this area of vintage photography. Really gives you a feel for what this area was like. A fun look at well-known tourist attraction. If you're like me and in the NYC/NJ area, your guests will especially appreciate it. I get comments from almost everybody who comes over and looks at it.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat memories from childhood adventures
By Nancy Dietel on January 3, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I bought this for my husband for Christmas as we both have wonderful childhood memories from bygone vacations at the Jersey shore. The stories and wealth of photos are even more precious to us as so much of the shore has been destroyed by Hurricane Sandy. A treasure trove for us.

By Emily on May 18, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Learned so much about the history of my own state. My grandparents honeymooned in AC, so it was always in their blood. Living in BB & AP, meant everything to me growing up! I even spent 8 years living "down the shore!"

5.0 out of 5 starsWOW - Love this book!
By E. Sequeira on August 23, 2008
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Love this book! What a fantastic gift for anyone familiar with the Jersey shore - I bought several for friends and family (and one for myself). The beautful photos really take you back in time, while the author tells the story behind the photos as well. This is a book you'll want to keep on the coffee table and pick up again and again when you crave a bit of nostalgia.

3.0 out of 5 starsOK Read
By Robert Cox on June 18, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This book is well written and illustrated. However, it's overly devoted to the history of Cape May and Atlantic Counties. Very little about the history of Ocean County. A disappointment in that respect.
