With 275 postcard images, this visual account of Ocean City's historic boardwalk, renowned beach, and surrounding bay and ocean waters draws on the extensive Fisher Collection--perhaps the best private postcard collection on the Eastern Shore.

Author Robert M. Craig's engaging descriptions of the summer resort's recreational activities range from boardwalk perambulation, people-watching, bicycling, sunbathing, and "fanny dipping" to the changing fashions of beach attire, deep-sea fishing, and sailing on the Sinepuxent Bay.
