Journalist Peter Genovese surveys the food, the business, and the culture of New York City’s pizza scene by visiting 250 pizzerias in all five boroughs.

Hundreds of current and never-before-seen archival photos complement this funny and fascinating book.

The Ultimate Guide to the Jersey Shore

Where to Eat, What to Do, and so Much More

Rutgers University Press

The Ultimate Guide to the Jersey Shore delivers just what it promises—the best and most complete guide to New Jersey’s most treasured asset. There have been dozens of books published about the Shore—on its history, culture, landmarks, etc.—but none until now have covered the Shore in its entirety—where to eat; where to stay; landmarks and attractions; special events and festivals; beaches and boardwalks; what to do with the kids; scenic drives, etc. The reporter and writer who knows New Jersey best captures the Shore in all its wonder, charm and diversity.
