The story of developers selling off the Sunshine State is as old as the first railroad tracks laid across the peninsula. But seldom do we hear about the men who actually built a better Florida. In George Merrick, Son of the South Wind, Arva Moore Parks recounts George Merrick's quest to distinguish himself from the legions of developers who sought only profit.
