A historical guide to exploring Jekyll Island and the Historic District, which houses the Jekyll Island Club. The Jekyll Island Club, a private hunting club from 1888-1947, was where American's Millionaires retreated for the winter during the Gilded Age. This book takes you on a journey through the history of the Club via a self-guided walking tour, complete with photographs; the walking tour is split into three accessible loops--the North Loop, the South Loop, and the Pier Road Loop. Demolished buildings, movie and TV projects filmed on the Island, a directory of prominent Club Members, and a brief look at Cumberland Island and the Carnegie connection are also included within the book, as is a section on activities on the Island, on the water, and adjacent to the Island.
