Juan Ponce de León reached the shores of Florida in 1513. Although the myth of the conquistador's quest for the fountain of youth was debunked long ago, his fabled search remains tied to the image of the Sunshine State. Featuring reproductions of hundreds of eye-catching postcards, vintage advertisements, vibrant photos, and other "Ponceabilia,” Finding the Fountain Youth reveals how Florida itself has been transformed into a veritable fountain of youth, a paradisiacal playground, a utopia of rejuvenating springs and supple mermaids.
