Florida: wealth or waste?
This new edition is a complete revision of the 1946 edition. Cost of printing prevented the inclusion of many materials from the earlier edition. Hence, it is suggested that both books be used to bring out comparisons and contrasts for the 2 periods of time. In most cases figures quoted are from the US Census of 1950. This manuscript, like the 1st, was prepared by a group of public school teachers and principals under the direction of Henry F. Becker, Chairman of the Dept. of Geography at Florida State University.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
