Miami: A Citylife Pictorial Guide

The 'Capital of Latin America', Miami is without a doubt the most foreign of US cities. The home of a large Hispanic population and the Latin American headquarters of some 120 multinational corporations, Miami has become more than just America's playground; it's a city whose cultural diversity has given it a vibrant edge and unique sense of place. This is a stunning tribute to this colourful city and introduces readers to its history, architecture, culture, diverse peoples, beaches, tourism, sports teams, and more with an extended introduction and detailed captions from a long-time resident. Showcasing everything from the beaches to the markets and the Art Deco hotels -- in areas such as Biscayne Bay, Coconut Grove, Brickell Avenue, Coral Gables, Miami Beach, and Little Havana - the book shows why this Florida city is the modern, multicultural face of the future.
