First edition. A volume in the American Guide series, sponsored by the Florida State Planning Board. Cloth with dust jacket. Very near fine in very near fine dust jacket, a lovely copy. Jacket signed in the design by (Irving) Politzer. Foreword by Marjory Stoneman Douglas. Stoneman Douglas later wrote the Everglades title for th…e Rivers of America series, dubbing it "the river of grass." The name caught on and her advocacy was instrumental in saving the Everglades from complete destruction. Sadly, the name of Marjory Stoneman Douglas will now forever be associated with the infamous school shooting in 2018.
