In this book are the words and over 250 pictures of the people who have lived in its watershed - from Jupiter Island to Juno Beach, from Jupiter Farms to Jupiter Inlet. Its also the story of the river itself: the struggle of a delicate waterway system to accommodate the crushing demand of those who want to share in its abundance.
