Broschiertes Buch

Outposts on the Gulf

Saint George Island and Apalachicola from Early Exploration to World War II

Beschreibung

A solid history of a relatively unknown area of Florida. The rich detail of destruction by hurricanes and fires; the building of lighthouses, schools, banks, and bars; and the stories of the people who were associated with those events and facilities makes lively reading. Rogers writes with vivacity and a quick wit. His book will be welcomed not only by Florida historians interested in state and local history but also by a much wider reading public."" - Journal of American History
