paperback. Condizione: Good. First THUS. Moderate wear, binding sound, book edges and several pages have areas of soiling. Florida Classics Library The "other" Florida is north and west, the part away from the tourist areas and the Space Age, another country altogether. When Gloria Jahoda, a sophisticated Northerner by birth and upbringing, came to live in Tallahassee she found her-self in a strange new world which she was determined to understand and which, as she came to know more about it, she learned to care for deeply. Her book is the story of a personal journey into unknown territory. Her explorations took her ? mainly on unpaved back roads ? to such places as Bristol, site of the Garden of Eden (they can prove it); the "teppentime" country where pines are tapped for turpentine by isolated workers; Solano Grove, the home in exile of the English composer Frederick Delius; Natural Bridge, scene of the last Confederate victory. Local characters, past and present, people her pages: theenaturalists John Muir and Alvan Chapman; Dr. Gorrie, whose "won-derful ice-machine" (1849) was the first air-conditioner; Yancey Register the Gulf Coast hermit; Ocey Rucker the trailer camp evangelist, whose revival meet-ings include a realistic spectacle of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah (with sound effects) ; Turner Gentry whose livelihood comes from catching rattlesnakes. A keen and sympathetic observer of people, Gloria Jahoda is also a naturalist. She knows the birds, wild animals and vegetation of the other Florida and vividly conveys the sights, sounds and scents of the country, as she explores its bays and little rivers, its pinewoods and swamps. "She writes with an informed and infectious enthusiasm which few readers will be able to resist."?Mark Van Doren. Codice articolo 251115004
