Excerpt from Asbury Park: A Presentation of Its Attractions as a Seashore Resort
And yet Asbury Park is a typical sea shore resort. Upon its boardwalk, eighty feet in width and three miles in length, one may walk for hours, inhaling the saline breezes from the ocean which beats upon the beach only a few yards distant. One may enjoy the exhilaration of abath in the surges which break upon the sands. One may be amused in varied ways as the fancy dictates. The fisherman finds plenty of opportunity for engaging in his favorite sport, and the sailor may toss for hours on the bright blue sea. And all this within sight of bright flowers, green grass and the monarchs of the forest which surround the city and invade its very thoroughfares.
