Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saint Augustine, Florida: Sketches of Its History, Objects of Interest, and Advantages as a Resort for Health and Recreation For nothing could look more like a paradise than Florida in April. Then he beheld it bathed in balmy light, redolent in fruit, flowers, and sunshine. Not only flowers, shrubs, and undergrowth by millions were in bloom, but the very forest trees till the air with the fragrance of their blossoms. The palmetto spreads its fanlike leaves to waft the breeze, the date palm waves its majestic plumes in the translucent blue air, and the feathery acacia and chaporell tremble to the gentle kiss of wooing zephyrs. The magnolia reflects the glowing sunshine upon its glossy leaves and contrasts its creamlike flowers with the radiant scarlet of the pomegranate. The golden oranges hang in tempting clusters among their fresh green leaves, while here and there peep out their scented blossoms. The lilies, in their grace and purity, as of old, put to shame "Solomon in all his glory: " sleeping on the placid water, cushioned on velvet leaves, or dancing in the air highly suspended on their spiral stems, or humbly hiding in mossy nooks and fairy dells; then appearing as the imperial oriflamme, the Fleur de Lis of France, clothed in royal purpler gorgeous as the scarlet trumpet lily, dazzling with its glory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many white southerners chose to memorialize the Lost Cause in the aftermath of the Civil War, boosters, entrepreneurs, and architects in southern cities believed that economic development, rather than nostalgia, would foster reconciliation between North and South. In Designing Dixie, Reiko Hillyer shows how these boosters crafted distinctive local pasts designed to promote their economic futures and to attract northern tourists and investors. Neither romanticizing the Old South nor appealing to Lost Cause ideology, promoters of New South industrialization used urban design to construct particular relationships to each city’s southern, slaveholding, and Confederate pasts. Drawing on the approaches of cultural history, landscape studies, and the history of memory, Hillyer shows how the southern tourist destinations of St. Augustine, Richmond, and Atlanta deployed historical imagery to attract northern investment. St. Augustine’s Spanish Renaissance Revival resorts muted the town’s Confederate past and linked northern investment in the city to the tradition of imperial expansion. Richmond boasted its colonial and Revolutionary heritage, depicting its industrial development as an outgrowth of national destiny. Atlanta’s use of northern architectural language displaced the southern identity of the city and substituted a narrative of long-standing allegiance to a modern industrial order. With its emphases on alternative southern pasts, architectural design, tourism, and political economy, Designing Dixie significantly revises our understandings of both southern historical memory and post–Civil War sectional reconciliation.
