''The Tides of Barnegat is a romance spanning a twenty year period from 1854 until 1874, with a highly melodramatic final chapter involving the newly organized U.S. Life-Saving Service in a tragic ship wreck... This scene of high drama comes as the resolution of a tightly constructed novel by a remarkable man.'' — from the Introduction by John Bailey Lloyd.

 Out of print for more than half a century, the text and original illustrations are carefully reproduced here in a lovely reprint of this classic 1906 seashore novel by F. Hopkinson Smith. In a Victorian style capturing the gentle ebbing and the fierce moods of the ocean and personalities of the people living along its shores, Smith's novel is a rich portrait of its era along the coast.

It ''makes you yearn for the time when things such as honor and duty and responsibility and commitment were actually taken seriously,'' said one reviewer.

The novel follows two sisters, Jane and Lucy Cobden. Jane, the older by ten years, had vowed alongside her father's deathbed to raise and protect Lucy. When Lucy returns from boarding school in Philadelphia, Jane gives her younger sister all she desires with a caring hand, but does not find in Lucy the same forthright and dutiful character that she possesses. Misled by her love, Jane protects Lucy at the expense of her own life's happiness and a marriage to a man who loves her.

The fictional setting uses many landmarks and locations that suggest Barnegat Light and the mainland adjacent to Long Beach Island N.J., although Smith has altered the landscape to benefit the narrative.

An added introduction by Long Beach Island historian John Bailey Lloyd explains some of the peculiarities of the novel, as well as keying the reader in to what is below the surface of all the strident virtue — strength commingled with human weakness. Mr. Lloyd provides a fascinating look at the author, a remarkable man who was a marine engineer, builder of lighthouses, writer, and fine artist.

This is a complete quality reprinting of the original book, not a print-on-demand facsimile edition, including the 12 original illustrations by George Wright. The softcover edition cover features a commissioned original oil painting by Jersey Shore artist Marilyn Ganss.

Easy to use and carry.
I love this stuff for the face and back of the neck. Works well and easy to carry fishing, hunting or any outdoor sports. Just a bit expensive, but still worth it.

Best sunblock. No white cast if you use the 30 spf. My dermatologist recommended this years ago and I’ve used it since.

No white residue
Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I put this sunscreen on immediately after it was delivered. It smells so good & goes on smoothly without any white residue. It seems to protect the skin, but then again I put some on every hour on the hour and didn't have any issues. I will be reordering. I wish this was on subscribe and save, but will continue to purchase.
