Vintage St. Pete: the Golden Age of Tourism - and More

Bill DeYoung

Bill DeYoung "takes a prideful romp through some of the quirkiest carefree and fun-loving experiences of our boomer childhood. He gently reminds us that history has occurred, too, in our lifetime. For those new to our city or interested to learn more, it'll quickly help you discover the tremendous breadth of activities our city had generated to attract people to our peninsula and separate them from their hard-earned vacation pay." From the foreword by Chris Steinocher, CEO of the St. Petersburg, FL Area Chamber of Commerce.
