Notes

Abstract:
This postcard shows La Serena, the winter home of William Jennings Bryan at Coconut Grove, Miami. It was esigned by August Geiger, Miami architect, and was built in 1913. William Jennings Bryan (1860–1925) was an American politician in the late-19th and early-20th centuries. He was a dominant force in the liberal wing of the Democratic Party, standing three times as its candidate for President of the United States (1896, 1900 and 1908), a devout Presbyterian, a supporter of popular democracy, an enemy of gold, banks and railroads, a leader of the silverite movement in the 1890s, a peace advocate, a prohibitionist, and an opponent of Darwinism on religious grounds.
