Book synopsis

Before a 1901 ceremony opened the peaceful resort town, the wild dunes of Bethany Beach were part of the rough and tumble New World and the deadly land wars between Delawareans and Marylanders. The twentieth century brought crowds eager to partake of a healthy saltwater bath and chicken-and-waffle socials. Local author Michael Morgan chronicles the history of this "quiet" resort with stories of rumrunners who concealed their illicit goods in local chicken coops, World War II residents who anxiously kept a weather eye on the Atlantic and the devastating 1962 Nor'easter. Join Morgan as he deftly narrates the storied history of this beloved Delaware beach town.
