Anne Barjolin-Smith
Ethno-Aesthetics of Surf in Florida “Much has been written about the importance of Hawai‘i, California, and Australia in global surf culture. Florida, which has produced some of the world’s most accomplished surfers, has received far less attention. With her innovative approach to surfing and music in the state, Anne Barjolin-Smith is beginning to rectify that. Those looking for a rich analysis of the culture and aesthetics of Florida surfers would do well to read this important new book.” —Scott Laderman, Professor of History at the University of Minnesota Duluth, USA

Acknowledgments
These are strange times… We have heard this many times throughout 2020. I started writing this book during a typical work year (I am a French junior-senior high school teacher), and I finished and revised it during the COVID-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter protests ensuing the death of George Floyd. With my idealist’s eyes, I see these times as a tough but necessary transitional period, during which each of us can reflect and take action at our own level and with our own resources. This book is by no means an end or a solution to a
