Ghosts, Legends & Lore from Florida: Miami Is Free on Amazon
Book overview
Miami has always existed in more than one version.
There is the city preserved in maps, newspapers, court files, photographs, and the buildings that survived. There is the city carried through local legend. And there is the Miami of rumor, where a dramatic story may outlive the evidence that first inspired it.
Travel from the Miami Circle and Cape Florida Lighthouse to Coconut Grove, Hialeah Park, Ocean Drive, Stiltsville, Coral Castle, Cold War missile sites, and the wreckage left by Hurricane Andrew. Along the way, documented history is separated from later folklore without stripping away the mystery and local character that keep these stories alive.
\*Ghosts, Legends & Lore from Florida: Miami\* is a conversational journey through Greater Miami's haunted places, disputed tales, civic myths, vanished landmarks, and remarkable history. It is written for locals, visitors, folklore readers, and anyone curious about the stories a city tells about itself.
