Description

This book traces the economic development of Florida from the Civil War to the present. One of the nation's most sparsely populated states at the end of that war, with fewer than 200,000 persons, it was on its way to becoming the fourth most populous in the nation at the beginning of the twenty-first century. The Sunshine State leapt from a small economy on the periphery at the end of the nineteenth century to one of the major economies of the United States by the end of the twentieth century.
