Set against the backdrop of 1920s South Florida\, the story follows Miami police detective Nate Moran as he navigates a city where wealthy elites\, gangsters\, and tourists all sought forbidden liquor—and where the smugglers supplying it often became folk heroes. \n\n\n\nThrough storytelling and conversation\, Kleinberg will share the real-life history behind the novel\, including the rum-running networks that thrived just miles off Miami’s coast and the complex relationship between crime\, law enforcement\, and high society during Prohibition in the United States. \n\n\n\nGuests will have the opportunity to purchase Hypocrite’s Row following the program. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n REGISTER \n \n\n\n\n\nEliot KleinbergAuthor of Hypocrite’s Row\n\n\n\nFlorida native Eliot Kleinberg\, creator of the Civil War historical novel “Peace River\,” the”Adventures of Nate Moran” novels\, and the original “Weird Florida” books\, spent nearly a half-century reporting on local news and writing about Florida and Florida history.

Although not a native Miamian\, she is a 305-er at heart. Ingrid has remained true to her indigenous roots and is passionate about Native American history and culture. She is best known for her eco-history tours of Miami’s historic sites\, neighborhoods\, and waterways. Ingrid currently serves as Museum of Miami’s Coordinator of Education Programs and Community Engagement and has been with the museum for over 10 years. \n\n\n\n\n\nPaul S. George\, Ph.D.Resident Historian\n\n\n\nFor over three decades\, Museum of Miami’s Resident Historian Dr. Paul S. George has toured his way to local\, national\, and international acclaim with his continuing series of historic tours. Through walking\, coach\, and boat tour experiences\, Dr. George has welcomed tour participants on a memorable journey of South Florida through its historic neighborhoods\, landmarks\, and sites. As a Miami native\, author\, and former college professor\, Dr. George has gained fame for his uncanny ability to recall the most impressive details about the people and places that make South Florida so unique. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe Barnacle Historic State Park\n\n\n\nBuilt in 1891\, The Barnacle offers a glimpse of frontier life during the Era of the Bay\, when all travel to and from Miami was by sea. Situated on the shore of Biscayne Bay\, this was the home of Ralph Middleton Munroe\, one of Coconut Grove’s most charming and influential pioneers. Munroe preserved the forest on his land\, cutting out only a winding buggy trail through the hammock — barely wide enough for one vehicle. As a result\, the property contains many large\, old trees. Left in its natural state\, The Barnacle Historic State Park appears much as it did in Munroe’s day. \n\n\n\n\n\nMacedonia Missionary Baptist Church\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Information\n\n\n\nPlease see below for additional information regarding the tour.
