Florida: The Sunshine State
Florida is a magic place -- full of sun, beaches and theme parks for young and old alike, it also contains some of the most interesting natural history sites in the nation. Long favored as a retirement destination, Florida is still the most popular vacation destination in the country.
Florida, the southeasternmost American state, is surrounded by water -- the Atlantic on the east side and the Gulf of Mexico on the west side. Miami is known for its Latin-American culture while Orlando is famous for Walt Disney World and many other attractions.

Beautiful book! The images were carefully selected to showcase well-known Florida locations, attractions, flora and fauna. It shows variety. I like that The Breakers and The Church of Bethesda-By-The-Sea, both Palm Beach sites, were featured and many photos on St. Augustine was also shown. This would make a great coffee table book!
