3.0 out of 5 stars
Not a good depiction of Florida,
By
This review is from: Florida 24/7 (Hardcover)
The photography was nice, but it wasn't a very good over-all depiction of Florida. Too much focus on small cultures and not enough on the larger cultures in Florida. Also, considering we are surrounded by water on 3 sides there were not many beach/ocean pics at all.
