The art works are allowed their own say, unlike many books where they are there merely to decorate the text. Paula Kolojeski's views of marshes and beaches, Theresa Troise Heidel's magnificent Victorian piles, Margaret Tourison Berndt's swift, racing hulls get full-page treatment in excellent reproductions. There are also Dick LaBonte's playful frolics, Ludlow Thorston's moody dunes, Virginia Perle's evocative waterscapes and Stephen Harrington's meticulous depictions of Old Barney and the Twin Lights of Navesink.

Arranged into sections by the change of seasons, Finale's poetry and prose illuminates the rhythms of the Shore over the course of the year. Finale masterfully captures the ebb and flow of seasonal life here. To The Shore Once More is certain to have its readers return to its pages again and again.

...the book captures the well-loved landmarks of the Jersey Shore—from the Twin Lights of Navesink to the tower of Old Barney—and gracefully includes a host of lesser known treasures as well. Among them, the "Belmar Gazebo" and "Bridge On Shark River, Belmar," both captured in golden light by Theresa Troise Heidel; "Ellen's Dune," by Margaret Tourison Berndt and "Sunset On The Toms River," by Virginia Perle.
