Florida in the late 1800s was a paradise waiting to be discovered. During this period, two visionary tycoons of the Gilded Age set out on separate ventures that would transform the Sunshine State from America’s last frontier into a destination for the rich and famous. The grand hotels that Henry M. Flagler and Henry B. Plant opened at their planned resort sites offered a fantasy stay surrounded by all the accoutrements expected by sophisticated, Gilded Age patrons. Florida’s Grand Hotels from the Gilded Age provides a look at these magnificent structures during their glory years, along with the fashionable entertainment and social and recreational pastimes that engaged their gilded guests.

Summary: Florida's Grand Hotels
Comment: Anyone under the age of one hundred should find this compelling pictorial history of Florida's Grand Hotels in the gilded era fascinating beyond words. Flager on the east coast and Plant on the West Coast. We cannot underestimate the contribution each of these financial moguls made to the Florida we know today. Priceless !
