Point Pleasant Volume I and Volume II have captivated audiences, and now, in this new addition to the Images of America series, author Jerry Woolley offers us a third volume of images to help us connect with our past. In Point Pleasant Volume III, we are invited to take a stroll down memory lane and see the areas residents at work and at play, boating and fishing, and simply relaxing on the beach. Also featured within these pages are a variety of snapshots of the places and events that have given this community its Old World familiarity. Its no wonder that Point Pleasant and Point Pleasant Beach have been popular tourist destinations for more than two centuries.
In Point Pleasant Volume II, historian Jerry Woolley continues the detailed look at Point Pleasant, Point Pleasant Beach, and Bay Head that he began in his wildly successful Volume I. While still maintaining a historical perspective, Woolley has also included more recent photographs to give us a more contemporary view of the area. Bounded by the Manasquan River on the north, the Atlantic Ocean on the east, and Barnegat Bay and Beaver Dam Creek to the south, Point Pleasant's uniquely aquatic environment has long been one of the area's major attractions. Woolley provides the reader with an intriguing look at the many waterfront faces of Point Pleasant.
