About the Book:
Baker’s Haulover
A Maritime Treasure of History and Pioneers
Learn the untold story of Baker’s Haulover at the north end of Miami Beach, Florida and the adjoining lands of Bal Harbour and Sunny Isles. This book is a celebration of a forgotten era of maritime history and a tribute to the spirit of its pioneers. The author's words are taken from more than 400 interviews. Many of the pioneers interviewed have since passed and if not for this author's research, first-hand dialogues would be lost forever.
