Gated Estate on Lake Boca Raton

The Boca Raton Resort & Club: Mizner's Inn
$23.99
iThe Boca Raton Resort & Club/i, originally known as the Cloister Inn, was designed by famed Palm Beach architect Addison Mizner to house prospective investors in his planned Boca Raton development. His dream, however, dissolved with the end of the Florida land boom and the 1926 Miami hurricane, as his Cloister Inn was acquired by utilities magnate Clarence Geist. Geist hired hotel architects Schultze and Weaver to design a major addition to the hostelry. Reopened as the Boca Raton Club in 1930, it became a principal employer and the primary tourist attraction in Boca Raton in ensuing years, its revival linked in many ways with that of the small community.P Join architectural historian Donald Curl as he chronicles the lovely landmark that opened in 1926 as a small inn on Lake Boca Raton and has since become the city's most exclusive destination.

A History of Boca Raton
$18.98
A quick read, yet a comprehensive history of Boca Raton and the institutions that make up our city. Sally Ling's many first-person vignettes are priceless in capturing Boca Raton's greatest institution of all its people. As the Mayor, I thought that I knew all there was to know about Boca's history, but there are many tidbits I discovered for the first time. This book covers it all from the beachfront to the old bean fields as it chronicles Boca Raton's rapid transformation from frontier beginnings to the world-renowned status the city enjoys today. -Steven Abrams, Mayor of Boca Raton Where fields of pineapple, tomatoes and beans previously grew to support farmers who occupied the fertile land, multi-story office buildings, upscale residential homes and plush golf courses now stretch to the horizon. From pirates burying doubloons in sand dunes to the farms and land booms that brought the city into being, this is the story of Boca Raton.

Fear and Loathing of Boca Raton
$12.98
Fear and Loathing of Boca Raton is a bit like the response to a Zen Koan, a mindful extended reflection on the seemingly paradoxical wants and needs of the Question Authority Generation: a guided, self-guided, non-manual manual that captures the spirit and imagination of a spirited and imaginative generation still charting uncharted territory. In this fresh and present journey into the second Sixties (way way way out beyond the unholy trinity of Viagra, statins, and early bird specials), the reader finds resonant and funny and unpredictable licks on everything from post-fifty sex, drugs, and rock and roll to vivid recollections of Vietnam and Woodstock to compellingly impolitic advice about staying hip and relevant into and through the counter-culture's collective dotage.
