Florida's Frontier: The Way Hit Wuz, Paperback

Descriere

As a Mizell family descendant who married and had children with a Barber, author Mary Ida Bass Barber Shearhart has a personal interest in the infamous Barber-Mizell Family Feud. The book is written as a compelling, action-filled novel set between 1841 and 1870, but is firmly based in historical fact. In addition to offering descriptions of pioneer life in Florida, the author provides insight about the Spanish colonization of Florida, the Seminole Indian Wars, the Civil War, and other topics. The characters in this novel are real people portrayed with amazing detail and depth. This book joins Patrick Smith's A Land Remembered as a popular and informative must read Florida novel.
