Beyond the streets and buildings that now bear the name Brickell is the rich history of William and Mary Brickell, who worked alongside Julia Tuttle and Henry Flagler to found Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Hollywood writer and director Beth Brickell has uncovered the history of this dynamic couple, from William's origins in Ohio to his adventures in the California and Australian gold rushes and marriage to Mary. This never-before-told story reveals both disappointment and triumph as these two pioneers clashed with Flagler and John D. Rockefeller during the robber baron days of the oil industry and finally tamed the wilderness of South Florida.

Orange Blossom 2.0 tells the untold story of Miami's "Other Mother" Mary Brickell and her integral and often overlooked role in the founding of Miami. Since the celebration of Miami's Centennial 25 years ago, Becerra has been on a mission to find the truth and share this story. He has been amassing new documents and proof that Mary Bulmer Brickell could very well be the most marginalized female founder in Miami history. "Orange Blossom 2.0" is the result of that journey and gathering spree that has trickled slowly into an avalanche becoming hard to ignore.

A clipped, anecdotal style distinguishes this history of Miami, originally published in 1953 but now updated through the Orange Bowl Parade of 1990. The text includes comments and stories about the Cuban and South American emigrations, the 1980s boom, drug craziness, the European fascination for Miami, the destruction of natural beauty, the chaos of inner-city living, and the residents--the author for one--both native and newcomers, who could never call another city "home." Chatty, factual, and personal, this is a not-to-be-missed slice of southern living. The photos are by Masud and Najam Quraishy. Bibliography; index. --Cynthia Ogorek.

Queer lives give rise to a vast array of objects: the things we fill our houses with, the gifts we share with our friends, the commodities we consume at work and at play, the clothes and accessories we wear, and the analogue and digital technologies we use to communicate with one another. But what makes an object queer? The sixty-three chapters in Queer Objects consider this question in relation to lesbian, gay and transgender communities across time, cultures and space. In this unique international collaboration, well-known and newer writers traverse world history to write about items ranging from ancient Egyptian tomb paintings and Roman artefacts to political placards, snapshots, sex toys and the smartphone. Fabulous, captivating, transgressive.

Upon their arrival to the south bank of the Miami River in 1871, the Brickell family guided the evolution of their namesake neighborhood into one of the most affluent and interesting places in America. The Southside quarter, which began as shoreline mangroves, quickly developed into Miami's upscale residential neighborhood. The successful people of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including Louis Comfort Tiffany, Arthur Brisbane, William Jennings Bryan, and countless other magnates of the Gilded Age, purchased lots from Mary Brickell and established their winter residences in what was known as the Magic City's Gold Coast. As Miami grew, the area changed with the times, evolving from upscale, single-family residences to the Manhattan of the South.
