Bubble in the Sun by Christopher Knowlton is a narrative history of the Florida land boom of the 1920s and its wider economic consequences. The book examines how speculative real estate frenzy, easy credit, promotional hype, and rapid development transformed places such as Miami, Coral Gables, Boca Raton, and Miami Beach before the market collapsed. Knowlton uses this regional story to explain a larger national pattern: how localized bubbles can distort capital flows, encourage reckless optimism, and deepen financial fragility. The book is both a history of Florida and a cautionary study of speculation, showing how ambition, infrastructure, celebrity developers, and environmental vulnerability combined to produce a dramatic rise and fall. It is written for readers interested in economic history, real estate booms, and the origins of the Great Depression.
