Vanishing Ocean City
With over 500 photos and images, Vanishing Ocean City takes you through a truly unique history of Ocean City, from its beginning in 1875 to the present. Author Bunk Mann spent 7 years compiling photos (most of which have never been published) and stories of Ocean City’s colorful history, with memories of the great storms and fires, life on the Boardwalk, Ocean City’s famous characters, the Ocean City Beach Patrol, deep sea fishing, and more.

Flip through the 220-page hardbound book and travel back in time with images of the early hotels and the long vanished buildings that make up Maryland’s famous beach resort.
