Florida Historical Society Harry T. and Harriette V. Moore AwardA history of the cultural tourism activities of the Florida SeminolesIn the early twentieth century, the Florida Seminoles struggled to survive in an environment altered by the drainage of the Everglades and a dwindling demand for animal hides. This revised and expanded edition of The Enduring Seminoles, now updated with a new preface, discusses the cultural tourism activities of the Seminoles over the decades that followed. By the 1930s almost all of the Florida Seminole population was engaged in the tourist market. They participated in fairs and expositions in Chicago, New York, and Canada. In large commercial Seminole villages in Miami and Ocala, they sewed brightly colored patchwork, wrestled alligators, and opened their palm-frond chickees to the public. Their exhibition economy provided income for families, and today, the Seminole Tribe of Florida and the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida promote their tourist activities to worldwide markets. Drawing on interviews with many Seminoles and extending to the Seminole Tribes purchase of the Hard Rock Caf business in 2007,The Enduring Seminolesprovides a colorful social and economic history of an unconquered people.A volume in the Florida History and Culture series, edited by Raymond Arsenault and Gary R. Mormino
