"Palm Beach County is known for its glistening beaches, world class golf and fun in the sun. But beneath the glitz and palm trees lies a legacy of scandal, darkly rich history and a trove of hidden gems. A playground for the Kennedys, Vanderbilts and Rockefellers, Palm Beach was born of oil and railroad money. Creating an oasis for the elite, the island became a centerpiece of lavish vacationing and hidden dealings. With wealth and power came secrets and whisperings. Over the decades new generations of socialites have graced the island maintaining a degree of glory days while business executives continue to find rest and relaxation within county lines. 111 Places in the Palm Beaches That You Must Not Miss provides an in-depth and diverse look into the past and present of the 561. Whether you were born here or are simply enjoying a long weekend, there is much to be discovered between these pages. From hidden artwork in Tequesta to haunted quarters in West Palm Beach to traditional Japanese traditions in Yamato, navigate the varying landscapes of the wealthiest county in Florida"--Goodreads.com. |
