Description
Florida's natural wonders come alive in this beautifully illustrated collection of postcards, advertisements, and memorabilia from the state's five largest springs. Tim Hollis brings together a treasure trove of rare photographs and artifacts to showcase the colorful past of these iconic attractions. From the mermaids and alligators of Weeki Wachee Spring to the underwater mountains and glass bottom boats of Silver Springs, this visual tour takes you on a journey through the state's most fascinating natural wonders. Commercially owned in their heyday, today's springs are protected as state parks, continuing to lure tourists and nature lovers alike. With eye-catching photographs and memorabilia, Remembering Florida Springs is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of tourism in Florida or the natural beauty of the state's springs.
