Summary
"During the Roaring Twenties, millions of Americans moved to the Sunshine State. A unique architectural theme emerged, known as Mediterranean Revival. Florida has experienced numerous land booms but none more sweeping than that of the 1920s. This illuminating account details how one of the greatest migration and development episodes in American history originated, exploded and eventually collapsed"-- Provided by publisher
