At The Breakers, Palm Beach's oldest existing and most esteemed hotel, the staff Is unfailingly friendly. Go Into any restaurant and you'll feel welcome - stroll down almost any street and people will give you a neighborly "hello." Pamela Fiori takes you on a tour through this tiny, multi-layered island to find the fun in (and out of) the sun.
In this exquisite volume, longtime visitor Pamela Fiori, along with others who visit and live there, share with readers the heritage of this tropical paradise. From its world-renowned hotels, dreamy estates, and fancy cars to Its endless shopping opportunities and Impeccable golf courses, 'In the Spirit of Palm Beach' presents a full spectrum of everything the Island can offer.
