If you read only one book about Florida make it
A Land Remembered.
In this best-selling novel, Patrick Smith tells the story of three generations of the MacIveys, a Florida family who battle the hardships of the frontier to rise from a dirt-poor Cracker life to the wealth and standing of real estate tycoons.
I found this book impossible to put down. Great read and a good history of Florida.
