Traveler's Companion Florida 98-99

In the Traveler's Florida Companion, Donal Carroll roams the "Sunshine State" from the Atlantic, where Florida's sun rises, to the Gulf of Mexico, where it sets, and from top to bottom - from where the Deep South ends to where South America begins. Along the way he makes discoveries that all visitors will find helpful and some will find surprising, such as the fact that Disney World is not only home to a small army of cartoon characters, but also to the world's fifth largest navy, or the fact that the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral is but a tiny corner of one of the country's great wildlife refuges. What will surprise no one is his conclusion that it is almost impossible not to enjoy yourself in Florida. Donald Carroll is the author of nine books, including two others in this series. When he is not traveling, he makes his home in London.
