Central Florida, the Las Vegas Strip and a Charlotte County cattle range, 1955 to 2022. Three buyers want a great deal of land and know that saying so out loud will cost them the price. Walt Disney, who watched the perimeter of his first park fill with other men's motels, buys forty-odd square miles of Florida pasture and cypress swamp through corporations with invented names. Kirk Kerkorian, a charter pilot with no gaming license, buys the ground across the road from the Flamingo and rents it to the man building Caesars Palace. Syd Kitson buys a ninety-one-thousand-acre ranch and sells three quarters of it to the state of Florida on the same day. Each is buying the same thing: land that has not yet been told what it is worth. Covers Walt Disney, Kirk Kerkorian, and Syd Kitson.
