DOWNLOAD EBOOKA Florida historian uncovers strange but true tales of The Sunshine State from the 16th century arrival of Spanish ships to the antics of modern politics. From Key West to the Redneck Riviera, Florida has a history as colorful as its landscape and as diverse as its residents. But beneath the famous legends of Florida’s storied past are intriguing tales that don’t appear in the popular guides or history books. In Hidden History of Florida, author James Clark shines a light on some of the most fascinating untold stories of this unique Southern State. Here you will learn about then heartbroken senator who entered a mental institution over unrequited love for an heiress; the thousands of British pilots who trained in flight schools across the state; and the dark, true story of Pocahontas—and how it is linked with America’s "first barbecue."

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“Seldom-told tales of the ‘lively and unusual cast of historic figures’ who helped shape the Florida Keys from the 1820s through the 1960s.”—Keys News The Florida Keys have witnessed all kinds of historical events, from the dramatic and the outrageous to the tragic and the comic. In the nineteenth century, uncompromising individuals fought duels and plotted political upsets. During the Civil War, a company of “Key West Avengers” escaped their Union-occupied city to join the Confederacy by sailing through the Bahamas. In the early twentieth century, black Bahamians founded a town of their own, while railway engineers went up against the U.S. Navy in a bid to complete the Overseas Railroad. When Prohibition came to the Keys, one defiant woman established a rum-running empire that dominated South Florida. Join Laura Albritton and Jerry Wilkinson as they delve into tales of treasure hunters, developers, exotic dancers, determined preservationists and more, from the colorful history of these islands.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCatching fish is not tough, if you know where to look. But knowing where to look separates the men from the boys-or the snook from the snookers, as the case may be. This book can go a long way toward helping you know where to look. It's based on more than 25 years of fishing Florida's inshore waters personally, and on the observations of dozens of good friends, many of them professional guides, who have been kind enough to assist and share a few of their secrets. SECRET SPOTS, Sarasota Bay to Marco, covers my personal favorite region of all the waters in Florida, the southwest coast. No where else has the variety and the abundance of fine inshore gamefish, plus the huge acreage of clear, shallow grass flats. - Frank Sargeant
