Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of letters written by the author, a resident of both Florida and Texas, who provides insight into the relative advantages and disadvantages of each state. A resident of both states for many years, the author asserts that Florida offers far greater advantages for those seeking a new homeâ"most notably, a climate far more agreeable and salubrious than that of Texas and seasons far more favorable to agriculture. Rich in detail, the author contrasts the extreme temperatures and frequent âNorthersâ that plague Texas with the warm and balmy weather found throughout most of Florida. Notably, the author points out that while Florida has a due proportion of poor lands, the ratio of these lands is relatively small compared to other states, and discusses the various types of lands found in Florida, including pine lands, hammock lands, and rich swamp lands. The author also explores the timber and water resources of each state, noting that Florida is by far the superior choice when considering the variety, abundance, and distribution of quality timber and water. Finally, the author highlights that Floridaâs tropical climate allows for the cultivation of valuable crops such as coffee, sugar, cocoa, and cotton, giving it a vast monopoly over other states in the union. This fascinating and informative book is a rich source of information for anyone looking to expand their understanding of these vastly different states and their respective opportunities. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780243091003_0
