Ocean City: America's Greatest Family Resort
What was once a whale-processing center in the 1700s emerged as a destination for sun and fun by drawing the biggest names and the classic American families of the early twentieth century.
Nestled along the New Jersey coastline and built to be one of the original seaside tourist destinations, Ocean City still sets the standard for resort living along the mid-Atlantic. As our country's search for the ideal vacation grew, this 7-mile stretch of beach cultivated a rich history and a reputation as one of the most alluring communities on the East Coast.

The First
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Ocean City New Jersey has been on the Jersey shore, 10 miles south of Atlantic City, since 1879 and this is the first comprehensive history available. The author did an excellent job researching the local historical archives to bring the reader the thorough historical perspective, as well as describing what makes this City by the ocean so unique as a family vacation spot.Jam packed with photos and facts of the 125-year saga. Well done...
