Great book about Florida history and the people who lived during that period.

I liked the book because it was filled with people who were hard workers and believed in the blessings that were given to them. So many of us were raised with these values but sadly some of this has been lost by so many. Very well written and was an enjoyable book to read. Was recommended to me by my sister.
