FOREWqjU) X The theme chosen for this volume, the Story of the Tropics, is one peculiarly appropriate. Florida is not only the southernmost state in the Union, but it is also the scene of the first settlements to be made in America. 1 he Story of the Tropics traces the growth of the state from the earls' days of its dis covery to the present time of high powered auto mobiles, speedboats, and real estate salesmen. The drawings used in developing this story may be re lied upon as being true representations of the period and the historical data employed is, so far as the edi tors can ascertain, thoroughly accurate. 7
