Publisher's Synopsis
Although this book serves primarily as a reference for school studies of the state of Florida and therefore is necessary in any school library, it is equally as important as a resource for newcomers to the state of Florida. It is far more useful than a tour guide: it is written by two educators/researchers living in the state of Florida. It contains very useful material for tourists and potential residents of the state. Organized by Florida past, present, and future - it features a useful section about the renewal of the space program and the subsequent revitalization of Florida's Space Coast with information about the increased frequency of launches at Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral.
The book would be a handy resource for realtors, chambers of commerce, hotel gift shops, and any tourist shops.
