Autor William E. McGounen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 ian 2013
The history of the Palm Beach area, the Treasure Coast, and Lake Okeechobee is one of turbulence, growth, and especially change.

Author William McGoun’s stories are sometimes hair-raising, sometimes amusing, and always engaging.
Well researched and dotted with photos from The Palm Beach Post archives, this collection of mini-biographies reads like a who’s who of Florida history.
