The Ultimate Guide to the Jersey Shore

The Jersey Shore, our most treasured asset, the envy of 49 other states, comes alive in this new book by the reporter/writer who knows New Jersey, and the Jersey Shore, best. Every conceivable topic is covered – where to eat; where to stay; landmarks and attractions; what to do with the kids; landmarks and attractions, with the kind of inside information you just won’t find on tourism web sites or Facebook. All 100-plus Shore towns are included in the book, from Sandy Hook to Cape May. There are hundreds of restaurant listings/recommendations. The book also contains engaging profiles/vignettes of the people and places that give the Shore its special character and charm. A throwback five-and-dime store on Long Beach Island. Banner pilots. Birders. Baby parades. And more. You want lists and rankings? The book is full of them – 20 Best Shore Towns, 21 Secret Spots Down the Shore, 20 Essential Jersey Shore Experiences, 50 Things We Bet You Didn’t Know About the Shore, and so on. The book is the next best thing to being at the Shore; actually, it may be better than being there (think of those epic traffic jams on the Parkway, and all the money you’ll save on tolls, beach fees and bad boardwalk pizza).
