City on the Sand
Author: Mary Corddry
Publisher: Cornell Maritime Press/Tidewater Publishers
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
In a little more than a hundred years, a desolate barrier island in Maryland became a teeming resort city. The story of how that feat was achieved is the heart of Mary Corddry's absorbing book. It is also the tale of opposites: the special affection thousands of Marylanders have for this unique place and the growing concern over the dune and marsh ecology and the effect of high density development on it. Here is a narrative of shifting sands and shifting fortunes, recounting how Ocean City has weathered natural and economic setbacks to become, every summer, Maryland's second-largest city.

Ocean City
Author: Ph.D., Nan DeVincent-Hayes
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 143962691X
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Discover how tiny Ocean City has overcame obstacle after obstacle and matured into the jewel of Maryland's shore. Ocean City, Maryland's own seaside resort, has become so popular that it is almost too small - five square miles - to hold all its tourists. The last few decades have brought tremendous growth to the area in the form of both population and development. Bridges and tunnels have been built, high-rise hotels and condominiums have grown up, and amusements of all kinds have become available to the summertime crowds. In this second volume of Ocean City, images of beach life from the late 1940s to the present day capture the spirit of this popular vacation spot. From funnel cakes to Ferris wheels and deep-sea fishing to seasonal festivals, Ocean City, now a year-round retreat, has offered millions of visitors an endless variety of entertainment. Having survived destruction caused by storms, problems associated with the real estate boom, and the overwhelming surge of visitors who each summer crowd the boardwalk and Coastal Highway, this "small" town has become the place to be on Maryland's shore.
