ORANGE BELT SPECIAL - Harry Symons (SIGNED, 1956 Hardcover)

From the flyleaf: 

"This is factual frolic in humorous narrative form, based on the weird experiences of two brash Canadians fresh out of University, era 1914, covering their misadventures prior to the days of radio, TV, airplane and modern motor car, in the then exceedingly far off wilds of Florida and Louisiana. It vividly portrays the unbelievable difference that forty years and two wars have made in our way of life. The voyage to their distant never-never land (where they vaguely know PEOPLE) and by steamship from New York, via Key West, and Tampa where they encounter the, to them, fabulous ORANGE BELT SPECIAL upon which they travelled through a cacti-jungled-type wilderness to reach there Land of Heaven. Here they are rewarded with manual labor in the local packing house, alongside the best colored competition. ..." 

The story continues from there, to New Orleans, later to St. Louis and finally back to Canada.
