Bøger af T. D. Allman

The site of vicious racial violence, including massacres, genocide, slavery, and the terrorist campaigns that undid Reconstruction, Florida is now one of our most diverse states, a dynamic multicultural place with an essential role in 21st century America. Allman reclaims this remarkable history from the mythologizers, apologists, and boosters.

With trenchant observations and witty prose, T. D. Allman takes readers on a tour of Miami's people, cultures, politics, and neighborhoods. In doing so he lays out a portrait of the profound changes overtaking American life everywhere. This twenty-fifth-anniversary edition remains a classic guide to a city teeming with money, exotic cargo, illegal drugs, and immigrants from all corners of the globe. As readers of this long-time bestseller have always appreciated, this also is a prophetic book--describing an emerging new America that, today, is all around us, whatever city or suburb or gated community we call home.
