Strople","description":"\u003cp\u003e\r\n    In his second book about Victoria Beach, author Mark Strople explores a time when traditions were still strong, but where transitions over time, were beginning to show themselves. Many of the Beach's beloved traditions (including but not limited to children's masquerades, Clubhouse dances, lining up at the bakery and cycling everywhere) were firmly in place. \r\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003e\r\n    It was also a time of transition; the last train pulled out of Victoria Beach in August 1962. Cottages first built by grandparents were now being passed on to their children, and their grandchildren. Those of the baby-boom generation (1946-1965) figure prominently during this time in the Beach's history—as children, teenagers and, by end of millennia, as parents, passing on much loved traditions to their own families.  \r\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003e\r\n    Where \u003ci\u003eBefore the Arch\u003c\/i\u003e may have elicited a \"I never knew that!\" response, it's hoped that \u003ci\u003eAfter the Arch\u003c\/i\u003e brings back a few \"I remember that!\" memories from a time (well) spent at Victoria Beach, 1960-2000. \r\n  \r\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n  \u003chr\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003e\r\n    See Mark Strople's first book, \u003ci\u003eBefore the Arch \u003c\/i\u003ehere! \r\n  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MARK J STROPLE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47109597954223,"sku":"185451","price":60.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0903\/2258\/files\/SITESIZING_38.png?v=1782319165","url":"https:\/\/shoppineridgehollow.com\/products\/after-the-arch-mark-j-strople-185451","provider":"Shop Pineridge Hollow","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
