“A terrific microcosm of the great excitement and tragic years of Florida’s Golden Age land boom. Men, women, entire families flooded into Florida believing bold enterprise practically guaranteed sudden riches. This inspirational account is a must read to truly understand the hopes, dreams and struggles of the 1920s in the paradise called Florida.

Debi Murray, Chief Curator
The Historical Society of Palm Beach County”
Robert Yost, Late to the Party in the Roaring Twenties and That Tropical Paradise Called Florida
