Description

"When I was a child in the 1960s, every summer my family spent two weeks of vacation at the shore. This family tradition started before I was born, when my grandparents, in 1953, bought a tiny two-room cottage. The journey from my home in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania to the house in Avalon, New Jersey, took about two and a half hours ... The back window became my magic frame through which I looked for landmarks to help pass the time"--Title page verso
