Reviews

[Babs M · Rating 4 out of 5]

Really interesting read for as old a book as it is. Written just after the Civil War in 1869 anyone that has lived a long time here will be able to relate to much and find out some new interesting things about areas that were once important that seem to have faded into obscurity. His comments on Miami are particularly interesting because what he had to say came to pass. He was a physician in search of the best places for extending life.
