Best of Both Worlds

  • $18.00


The post World War II era on a barrier island on the coast of New Jersey proved to be a wondrous time and place to be born and grow up. Surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and Barnegat Bay to the west, the small-town ambiance of a seashore community provided endless hours of enjoyment and activities. Winter friends, summer acquaintances, and hometown influences helped to shape the life of one woman.

As childhood morphed into adulthood, the discovery of another place, full of new challenges and revelations came to her attention. The Adirondack Park in New York State, with its six million acres of natural, untamed wilderness, became a new territory to adopt as her own.

Best of Both Worlds is the story of two enviable places to live. Be prepared to take a tour of two polar-opposite regions as seen through the eyes of a seasoned inhabitant. Filled with history, characters, and insights into the pleasures and pathos of both destinations, you are invited to experience the best both have to offer.
