Jump into the wacky, wild world of Florida. For more than 30 years,
investigative journalist and New York Times bestselling author
Craig Pittman has chronicled the wildest stories Florida has to
offer. Featuring a selection of columns that have appeared in the
Tampa Bay Times and other outlets throughout Pittman's career, this
book highlights just how strange and wonderful Florida can be. With
a folksy style, an eye for the absurd, and a passion for the
history and environment of his home state, Pittman describes some
of Florida's oddest wildlife as well as its quirkiest people. The
State You're In includes a love story involving the most tattooed
woman in the world, a deep dive into the state's professional
mermaid industry, and an investigation of a battle between
residents of a nudist resort and the U.S. Postal Service. Pittman
introduces readers to a who's who of Florida crime fiction, a
what's what of exotic animals, and an array of beloved places he's
seen change rapidly in his lifetime. Many of these stories are
funny, some are serious, and several offer rare insights into the
heart of the Sunshine State. For Pittman, Florida is both inspiring
and dangerous-an "evolutionary test" for those who live in it.
Together these pieces paint a complex picture of a fascinating
state longing for an identity beyond palm trees and punchlines.
