Book Description
Ocean Grove in Vintage Postcards explores the history of one of America's first planned Victorian communities and one of the most successful camp meetings ever founded. It chronicles the story of this unique Jersey Shore community, using postcards that bear not only rare pictures but also fascinating messages. Thus, the book sheds light on both the place and the vacationers who came here by the tens of thousands. For more than one hundred thirty-five years, people have journeyed to Ocean Grove, seeking both the religious and the secular.
