The book explores the rich history and unique character of West Long Branch, highlighting its picturesque properties and the families that shaped the community. It details the transformation from a farming town to a vibrant hub, influenced by prosperous New Yorkers who built summer homes. The narrative also addresses the post-World War II evolution of the area into a town-and-gown community, as many cottages were repurposed for educational use, reflecting the town's dynamic growth and enduring charm.
