“War in Paradise: World War II in Florida”

Kleinberg, retired journalist for The Palm Beach Post, brings to light the impact of World War II on the Sunshine State. From U-Boat attacks off of Florida's coast to sprawling military bases, hear how a world at war transformed
a sleepy southern state into one of the nation’s hotspots. Florida would never be the same! Presented by Florida Humanities and the Friends of the Ocala Library.
