The History of Cape Canaveral and its People

by Sonny Witt



order book

I've met and toured with Sonny twice. He talked about putting this together for awhile and now it's available.

I just ordered mine so I'll review it in detail soon.

I'm very excited about this book!

I just received the book today, and it has 241 pages of facts, photos, info on the lighthouse keepers, letters, etc.
I’ll give you a further update when I start to read it. I can’t wait to find those unique Sonny Stories

I just spent the last hour gleening through "Dawn of Light". I was not disappointed! The book is chock full of facts and history. The photos are wonderful. Sonny's style of writing is just like talking to him. He tells the footnoted history interlaced with his personal comments,observations and antedotes, on how these facts led him to next discovery. This book takes on the personality of the Author, and is a must for anyone interested in Cape Canaveral, and Florida lighthouses. groupwave
