Land of Sunshine, State of Dreams: A Social History of Modern Florida was published in the spring of 2005 by the University Press of Florida. Readers have called it a seminal study in state history. Michael Gannon, Distinguished History Professor at the University of Florida, writes that Land of Sunshine, State of Dreams 鈥渨ill be the book by which all future studies of modern Florida will be measured.鈥� In 2006, the Florida Historical Society awarded the book the Charlton Tebeau Prize.
