Florida and World War II

Remote Instructor: Gary R. Mormino
Course #: SPE284
Members: $5 | General Public: $10
On the eve of Pearl Harbor, Florida was the smallest state in the South (smaller than Arkansas or South Carolina). Today, Florida is the third largest state in the nation. World War II represents a watershed and a revolution. Florida was home to hundreds of World War II military bases. The war left a legacy of a commitment to higher education (the GI Bill) and the beginning of the Sunbelt revolution powered by air conditioning, interstate highways, and a flood of senior citizens who flocked to the Sunshine State. Professor Mormino is writing a book on Florida and World War II.
