Examines the promotion of California and Florida from the end of the Civil War to the eve of the Great Depression, a period when both states were transformed from remote, sparsely populated locales into two of the most publicised and dreamed-about destinations in America. Using the discussion of climate, geography, race and environment, to link agricultural, tourist, and urban development in these regions, Knight provides a highly original and informative account.
