First edition.  This copy is better than very good.  The corners are a little bumped. This is a very attractive collectable copy of this classic work.   (A7-0061).   $300.00

The book has also been seen bound as a paperback, in limp leather, and with a plain cover. Ballinger was a reporter for the Miami Herald during this period and tells the story chronologically. This is the only known contemporary history of the Florida land boom and is one of the most important South Florida books.
