Refreshingly upbeat book about the Jersey coast

Let me first say that I have never been to the Jersey Shore. I grew up on the Florida/Alabama shore and while the topography is very different, the stories and poems and photos in this book brought me a sincere sense of nostalgia. There are stories from people who went there for vacation, and people who lived year round. There are excellent poems, outstanding photos and overall just a very well written and organized book that includes many different authors and photographers and poets. I loved it and it made me want to be sure and include a trip up to that area in my bucket list. Very good job.
