Arundel-on-the-Bay Book Launch

The Amazing Story of Arundel-on-the-Bay:1600s to Today was published this month.  There will be a launch party on Tuesday, December 5 where local history enthusiasts can get their copy signed by the authors from 6:30-8:30 pm. The event will be hosted by Old Fox Books and Coffee House, 35 Maryland Ave. Enjoy coffee, wine and snacks while meeting the authors. The book price is discounted that night at $35.  The book chronicles a community evolving from the Gay Nineties, through the segregated Jim Crow era, World War II, woman’s liberation, and other 20^th and 21st century realities. What emerges in the telling is a portrait of America’s social and cultural history that shaped a community.

The books authors, all residents of Arundel–on-the-Bay, banded together five years ago to research and write the book. They include: Aris T. Allen Jr, Phillip Allen, Marc L. Apter, Wilma Coble, Edie Dolberg, Pamela Duncan, Robert Meissner, John Moses, Karen Neale, Bill Semenuk and Arend J. Thomas, III. The lavishly illustrated full color book is available at local book stores and Amazon for $39.95.
