In chronicling Miami’s transnational queer past from its 1896 founding through 1940, Welcome to Fairyland shows the multifaceted ways gender and sexual renegades made the city their own. Drawing from a multilingual archive, Julio Capó, Jr. unearths the forgotten history of “fairyland,” a marketing term crafted by urban boosters that held multiple meanings for different groups of people. This book turns our attention to migrants and immigrants, tourism, and trade to and from the Caribbean-particularly the Bahamas, Cuba, and Haiti-to expand the geographic and methodological parameters of urban and queer history.
