Editor's Notes and Comments:
Brief Book Summary:
Visit the Ocean City, Maryland, that your grandparents visited. Historic photographs preserve images from the 1900s when bonneted women wore full-length dresses on the boardwalk. Then travel to the 1970s, when the crowds stopped at 38th Street. Aerial views help trace the island's development from a remote Victorian seaside village to the advent of high-rise condos and resort hotels. Look back at the city's long-favorite attractions: the Boardwalk and the Fishing Pier. See famous landmarks like the Atlantic Hotel and the Ocean City Life-Saving Station. Venture to nearby attractions at the Ocean Downs Raceway, Frontier Town, and Assateague Island. Pictures and text beautifully summarize the history of this popular summer vacation area.

I've been going to Ocean City, Maryland all my life, and I try to obtain any books about the town.
I got this one, and was very happy with it. It perfectly illustrates the history of Ocean City through post cards. And full colour pictures of the post cards.
Included is a brief history of Ocean City.
Highly recommended. Buy it now. Back in the late nineties, a similar book called "Down the Ocean" was published. It's now out of print and pretty hard to find. So, I'd say get this if you can.
