Red Bank, New Jersey–one of the state’s most vibrant

places–is fortunate to have such a comprehensive and

vivid photographic record. Pioneer photographers from the 1860s, as well as their modern counterparts, have contributed an exciting number of images to four books about the area: Red Bank Volumes I through III and Red Bank in the American

Century. Present and former residents of Red Bank have greeted each volume with enthusiasm–a testament to the people’s pride and commitment to preservation in this community. This exceptional new book continues an in-depth exploration of ongoing changes in the town. By directing attention toward each part of the town–from Broad Street to Front Street and from the waterfront to the west side and

Monmouth Street–Red Bank Volume III presents a far-reaching portrait of the town. A separate and final chapter devoted to Red Bank’s people, places, and events allows readers to grasp the flavor of this distinctive town.
