From the jacket flap: "Benn, born and reared in Miami, reveals in his first-person commentary the circumstances surrounding the development of his career and an insider’s look at working for National Geographic Magazine during a period of that publication’s internal management conflict. A Peculiar Paradise offers an entertaining and subjective volume that reflects Benn’s affection for his hometown and celebrates the economic and social re-invention of Florida that eliminated most of what was familiar from his boyhood.
