The narrative explores the rise and decline of Asbury Park, highlighting its transformation from a booming resort town at the dawn of the 20th century to a community facing economic challenges and civil unrest by 1970. Key figures like founder James A. Bradley and Mayor Clarence E.F. Hetrick are pivotal in this story, as shifts in politics and society reshape the town. The resurgence in the 21st century, driven by new leaders and a spirit of inclusivity, marks a significant turning point in revitalizing Asbury Park's identity and economy.
