‎Florida's War on Drugs: Enforcement Rehab Intake and Seizure Display 18 Press Photos 1970 to 1990s‎

‎1970. Narcotics raids arrests rehabilitation scenes and evidence displays across Florida in press photographs and magazine pages. Photograph archive spanning Miami Fort Lauderdale Pasco County and related Florida sites from 1970 to the early 1990s establishing how drug control operated through police action newspaper circulation and treatment institutions during the War on Drugs. Produced for press use by newspaper staff photographers wire services and law enforcement publicity channels the group shows the public face of narcotics enforcement at the point when South Florida had become a major corridor in the national drug economy and anti drug policy was being made newly visible through staged photographs official briefings and widely circulated arrest imagery. Named figures included such as Bob Gladden Larry Csonka Jim Kiick Admiral Rickover Carl Mingo and several rehab subjects identified by hand on the versos. The photographs depict suspects detained searched paraded identified displayed beside seized contraband and in other cases shown within rehabilitation settings revealing how law enforcement courts newsrooms and treatment programs handled the same crisis through different institutional forms.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 18 press photographs including 16 silver gelatin press photographs and 2 wire photos approximately 8 x 10 inches Florida 1970 to early 1990s. The core images show narcotics policing in action: a helmeted officer beside a paddy wagon crowded with detainees; a bench filled with young men under detention in an interior holding space; two handcuffed men led from a courthouse or station entrance; a police-released mugshot with typed caption identifying former New England Patriots running back Bob Gladden after arrest in Fort Lauderdale on a marijuana charge; and a street arrest with an armed officer escorting a suspect between parked cars. Several photographs center on the staged display of evidence including tables covered with packets of drugs stacked currency pistols taped "cookie sheets" and open suitcases packed with bricks or cutting materials. One image shows a narcotics dog inspecting rows of luggage; another shows officials at microphones before a sign for the Vice President's National Narcotics Border Interdiction System; another records cocaine seized from a concealed boat compartment. The group also includes rehabilitation scenes with young adults identified en verso in cursive extending the archive beyond arrest photography into treatment culture. Versos carry a dense record of press handling and editorial use including Miami Herald staff photo stamps dated Dec. 15 1970 and Jan. 5 1971 a St. Petersburg Times credit and clipping backing for a Pasco County drug ring case dated May 29 1974 typed bureau captions circled editorial notations such as "cocaine" "marijuana" "drug raid" and "Operation Crackdown" plus handwritten shot descriptions and date-used stamps.<br /> <br /> The earliest prints fall at the threshold of the modern War on Drugs while later additions carry the record forward into the crack era and the more theatrical seizure photography of the 1980s and early 1990s. Florida is central to that story not only as a site of smuggling and interdiction but as a place where narcotics enforcement became highly visual with press conferences celebrity linked arrests tactical raids canine inspections and rehabilitation coverage all translated into newspaper images for public consumption. The present grouping combines an earlier core of related press photographs with later additions and it preserves a strong visual record of how narcotics control was communicated to the public through local papers wire distribution and agency captioning. Light surface wear minor edge and corner handling editorial markings and stamps to versos scattered adhesive residue and toning; overall very good condition. A concentrated Florida press record of the machinery publicity and human management of drug enforcement across two decades. unknown‎

‎Inside Bush v. Gore.‎

‎Gainesville: University Press of Florida 2013. First Edition Advance Review Copy with Publisher’s letter laid-in. Octavo blue boards hardcover 142 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: Hanging chads. Butterfly ballots. Unruly demonstrations across the country. A state capital occupied by the national press corps. For thirty-six excruciating days in late 2000 a nation held its breath while behind closed doors the seven justices of the Florida Supreme Court debated the outcome of the presidential election. The events that transpired within the justices’ chambers -- their arguments exhortations and appeals to one another -- have remained a mystery. until now. Inside Bush v. Gore presents the unique candid and compelling perspective of the Florida Supreme Court Chief Justice who stood at the center of the storm. Charley Wells a strong dissenting voice in the court’s 4-3 decision that mandated a statewide manual recount gives an unprecedented play-by-play of those tumultuous days. Not only is his legal analysis of Bush v. Gore at the state and federal levels invaluable but he also offers an insider’s view of judicial relationships the frustrations of ambiguous election laws the difficulties of separating the legalities from the politics and the unsung yet critical role played by state court professionals. Ultimately Inside Bush v. Gore is a story about the transfer of power in a country that prides itself on the democratic process of electing its leaders and the ability of the court system to justly and fairly resolve disputes. With the advantage of hindsite and the perspective gained by reading countless commentaries and studies about the decisions of both the Florida and the United States Supreme Courts Wells highlights how the rule of law prevailed in the midst of one of the country’s most controversial elections in recent history.

‎Northpoint NY: Bacon Percy & Daggett 1941. Presumed First Edition First printing. Hardcover. Good. xx 202 pages. Illustrations. Maps. Chronology. Bibliography. Index. No dust jacket present. Some cover wear noted. Writing inside both covers. Some page soiling noted. This is one of the American Guide series. The cover title is "Guide to Miami and Environs". Foreword by Marjory Stoneman Douglas. The books in the series were to contain accurate and thorough accounts of American history according to a letter to State directors on the project. Each book's primary purpose was to not only outline the history of the individual states but the following as well: Geography Agriculture Tourist attractions Ethnic groups ArchitectureArts and Industry. Three different types of guides were published: state regional and city guides. Each guide had its own distinct features but followed the same uniform structure. The city guides had the most narrow scope out of all three types as the focus was on a single location. Because of this their maps could be in the greatest detail not only giving an overview of a city's layout but individual neighborhoods as well. City Guides highlighted points of special interest in greater detail. In the Philadelphia guide sites such as Carpenters' Hall and Girard College an-all boys boarding school in the city's northern section each had several pages dedicated to them. The maps that were included in each book added value to them as material objects and not just literature. With the increasing mobility afforded by the number of Americans who owned automobiles the guides served as reliable and durable resources for travelers moving throughout the country. The American Guide Series includes books and pamphlets published from 1937 to 1941 under the auspices of the Federal Writers' Project FWP a Depression-era program that was part of the larger Works Progress Administration in the United States. The American Guide Series books were compiled by the FWP but printed by individual states and contained detailed histories of each of the then 48 states of the Union with descriptions of every major city and town. The series not only detailed the histories of the 48 states but provided insight to their cultures as well. In total the project employed over 6000 writers. The format was uniform comprising essays on the state's history and culture descriptions of its major cities automobile tours of important attractions and a portfolio of photographs. Many books in the project have been updated by private companies or republished without updating. Although not then a state a guide for Alaska was published and also for Puerto Rico but not for Hawaii. If there had been room in Rocinante I would have packed the W.P.A. Guides to the States all forty-eight volumes of them.The complete set comprises the most comprehensive account of the United States ever got together and nothing since has approached it." — John Steinbeck Travels with Charley 1962. As part of the Federal Writers' Project established under the Emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1935 and the Works Progress Administration over 6500 men and women were employed around the country as writers collecting stories interviews and photographs on a variety of subjects. The project attracted many unemployed writers and artists offering a wage of twenty dollars a week. President Franklin D. Roosevelt enlisted Henry Alsberg a journalist and playwright to head the project. As part of this the FWP developed and published a series of books that served as guides to the 48 existing states. Each book's primary purpose was to not only outline the history of the individual state but its culture and geography as well. Their predecessor Baedeker's Handbook for Travelers: United States lacked much of what was needed to give a picture of America during the 1930s. Alsberg insisted that the new series of books paint a picture of American culture as a whole and celebrate the nation's diversity. From 1937 to 1941 thousands of writers set out around the country to capture America's culture conducting fieldwork interviewing citizens and observing and recording folk traditions and local customs. Writers from all over the country sought to capture American culture during the Great Depression a difficult task given the dire circumstances. Alsberg tasked Benjamin A. Botkin a folklorist and scholar with running the folklore division of the project. Botkin was responsible for coordinating and managing the writers a task that was too large for Alsberg to handle as the volume of work coming in was plentiful for the project. In this role Botkin not only influenced the writers' folklore division but also had a great influence on their coverage of culture. The project's beginnings did not come without challenges. During its infancy various writers' organizations pressured the project because of the parameters that were set by the FWP. With the project bringing many established writers back into the workforce the Authors' Guild of America became aggressive in the pursuit of relaxing guidelines for the writers and also developed a disdain for the project's employment of writers with a lack of experience. With the FWP's main focus on creating jobs for the unemployed the Author's Guild and organizations similar to it continued to criticize the amateurism of many writers on the project. The solution to this critique was a simple one: find enough work for all of the writers. The roles of the writers enlisted to work on the project not only included their initial role as writers but also as photographers geographers and cartographers allowing the creation of additional white collar jobs.
