Dream about a bygone world of natural wonders in Tim Hollis’ Remembering Florida Springs. This book explores the “big five” of Florida’s commercially developed springs: Silver Springs, Wakulla Springs, Rainbow Springs, Weeki Wachee Spring, and Homosassa Springs. Discover the tourist history of these attractions through postcards, advertisements, brochures, signs, flyers, and souvenirs from their early days. You may just find mermaids, alligators, underwater mountains, and glass-bottom and submarine boats!

 

We hope you enjoy this gallery of colorful, quaint, and sometimes strange scenes of early Florida tourism from Remembering Florida Springs.
