Book Description
Inviting beaches, scenic vistas, magnificent architecture, and a fascinating history have made Palm Beach one of America's premier tourist destinations. Beginning with Henry Flagler's construction of railroads, and the Royal Poinciana and The Breakers luxury hotels in the late 1800s, the county has been a beacon for vacationers seeking escape from everyday life and winter weather for more than one hundred years. With a selection of fine historic images from his best-selling book Historic Photos of Palm Beach County, Seth H. Bramson provides a valuable and revealing historical retrospective on the growth and development of the area. Remembering Palm Beach presents the story of this popular section of Florida, told through vivid black-and-white photographs carefully selected from the finest archives. The images in these pages show how the region grew from ?almost a wilderness” to become a place where beachfront property is coveted.

Book Description
Known for its year-round warmth, beautiful beaches and famous residents, Palm Beach County is one of the most well-known areas along Florida's Atlantic coast. And although many people know the county as a winter destination for the likes of starlets and snowbirds, few know that German U-boats sank sixteen ships off the coast in 1942. Nor do they know that eleven "barefoot mailmen" originally took on the mail service between Palm Beach and Miami. In Palm Beach Past: The Best of "Post Time," author and local journalist Eliot Kleinberg has compiled a collection of historical vignettes--which originally appeared in the Palm Beach Post--about the intriguing people and events in the county's history. Kleinberg reveals little-known facts about the development of the region's prestigious neighborhoods and parks, while introducing readers to some of the most captivating and eccentric characters. For readers who want to understand the Palm Beach County of today or those who enjoy local history and just want a "good read," Palm Beach Past is a must.

Book Description
While North Palm Beach itself is relatively young--just about retirement age--the history of this area is as broad as the horizon. Long before this village was founded in 1956, the Jeaga tribe lived and thrived here. In 1883, perhaps with a mind to farm pineapples, two men began purchasing local plots, becoming the area's first landowners. From there, through fits and starts, this idyll of small-town life began to take shape. The population surged in 1956 when Pratt & Whitney built a facility west of town, making the village a destination for professionals and their families. Former village historian Rosa Sophia traces the long and fascinating history of North Palm Beach, touching on the little known and providing broader understanding of the people and events that nurtured the undeniable community atmosphere that exists today.
