The Cigar Industry Changes Florida: Photo Analysis: The Lector Reading to Workers | The cigar industry prospered in Florida during the early decades of the 20th century. A combination of factors caused the industry to decline, however, as time moved forward. Conflicts between organized labor and factory managers slowed production, while new machines were able to turn out cigars much faster and cheaper than the hand-rolling method. Demand for fine cigars decreased during the Great Depression, and by the end of World War II enough cigar factories had closed to make the industry less attractive for returning veterans. In this lesson students analyze and write from related primary source documents. |
Florida During the Spanish-American War of 1898: The Rough Riders in Tampa | The Rough Riders went to Tampa at the end of May. On June 13, they left Tampa to fight in Cuba.

Florida During the Spanish-American War of 1898: The Buffalo Soldiers in the Spanish-American War | The most famous of the African-American soldiers to fight in the Spanish-American War were known as the "Buffalo Soldiers."

The four regiments, the 9th and 10th Cavalries and the 24th and 25th Infantries, were created by Congress just after the American Civil War.
