Travel "down the shore" as Margaret illustrates the fundamental, timeless activities that perennially give vacationers memorable experiences that spark return visits.
Margaret Thomas Buchholz co-authored Great Storms of the Jersey Shore, which The New York Times called “one of the best documented compendiums ever published of what it meant to be there.”
