Survival Of A Frontier Presidio: St. Augustine And The Subsidy And Private Contract Systems, 1680-1702, William R. Gillaspie
Florida Historical Quarterly
The last two decades of the seventeenth century were critical years in determining the eighteenth-century destiny of the entire breadth of the Spanish borderlands in North America. Overshadowing the outcome of the international rivalry over the continent were three changing tenets in international law during the last third of the seventeenth century. The first was Spain’s acceptance of “freedom of the seas” in place of mare clausum (closed sea) whereby she had sought exclusivism of the waters adjacent to its territorial holdings. Another changing tenet, to Spain’s advantage, was the European abandonment of “no peace beyond the line” (of demarcation) …

Hillsborough County (1850): A Community In The South Florida Flatwoods, John Solomon Otto
Hillsborough County (1850): A Community In The South Florida Flatwoods, John Solomon Otto
Florida Historical Quarterly
Historians of the Old South have traditionally searched for generalizations that might hold true for the entire region. Despite their attempts at regional generalization, they have used sources that come largely from the plantation South— the tidal, riverain, and Piedmont areas of the Lower South, where cash crop plantations predominated. Wealthy planters who owned many slaves and who grew cash crops such as cotton, tobacco, rice, or sugar were far more likely to leave a written legacy than small farmers who owned no slaves and grew few if any cash crops. Moreover, visitors who penned travelogues describing conditions in the …

John Ellis, Royal Agent For West Florida, Roy A. Rauschenberg
John Ellis, Royal Agent For West Florida, Roy A. Rauschenberg
Florida Historical Quarterly
When Britain acquired West Florida in 1763, John Ellis was appointed royal agent for West Florida. Found only in Nova Scotia, Georgia, and East and West Florida, royal or crown agents were used in underdeveloped but strategically important colonies that lacked the revenue to finance their own government. In these cases the crown assumed the financial load, and the agent was the London-based fiscal officer— the comptroller— supervising the crown’s allocations to the colony. Though easily confused with the better known and more widely used colonial agent, the royal agent was an entirely different kind of office. The royal agent …

The Agrarians From The Perspective Of Fifty Years: An Essay Review, Willard B. Gatewood, Jr.
The Agrarians From The Perspective Of Fifty Years: An Essay Review, Willard B. Gatewood, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the fall of 1930 Harper and Brothers, an old and prestigious northern publishing house, brought out a collection of essays by “twelve Southerners,” entitled I’ll Take My Stand: The South and the Agrarian Tradition. Described at the time as a Southern or Southern Agrarian manifesto, the collection came into existence, according to one of the contributors, as “a sort of happening”— “a coalescence of circumstances and people and conditions” unlikely to reoccur. The contributors, known as the Agrarians, were for the most part natives of the rural, small-town areas of the westernmost South, and most at some point had …
German Tourists In Florida: A Two-Century Record, Earl R. Beck
German Tourists In Florida: A Two-Century Record, Earl R. Beck
Florida Historical Quarterly
In 1981, 74,219 West German tourists landed in the airport in Miami. This figure, which represents over a ten per cent increase over 1980, does not take account of many Germans who came to Florida after landing elsewhere in the United States. Those thousands of Germans who visit Florida today are continuing the lively interest in this state which began more than two hundred years ago. But, strangely enough, the number of German accounts of Florida and its myriad lures has been quite small. Stranger still, while tourism has grown, German writing about Florida has declined, and some recent accounts …
An Integrated Free School In Civil War Florida, Gerald Schwartz
An Integrated Free School In Civil War Florida, Gerald Schwartz
Florida Historical Quarterly
During the Federal occupation of Jacksonville in February 1864, an attempt was made by Dr. Esther Hill Hawks, an abolitionist lady from New Hampshire, to operate there the state’s first racially integrated free school. This kind of an integrated facility, fleeting though it proved to be, was among the first in any southern state.

Billy Graham In Florida, Lois Ferm
Billy Graham In Florida, Lois Ferm
Florida Historical Quarterly
Billy Graham who suffered periodic attacks of influenza when he was a young boy, first came to Florida because the doctors hoped that a warm climate would restore his health. However, in terms of his career in evangelism, his decision to move South seems almost providential, for as a student at the Florida Bible Institute in Tampa in the 1930s, he was exposed to a veritable “Who’s Who” of evangelical giants. As a high school student, Billy had accepted the claims of Jesus Christ on his life and had surrendered his life to Christ in a revival service held in …
Educational Opportunities In Spanish West Florida, 1781-1821, Jack D. L. Holmes
Educational Opportunities In Spanish West Florida, 1781-1821, Jack D. L. Holmes
Florida Historical Quarterly
Governor Vicente Folch y Juan opened his son Stephen’s 1797 letter with eager hands. Due to the Anglo-Spanish war, communications to Pensacola had been delayed, and he was relieved to learn that both his sons were well. To his superior, Captain-General Conde de Santa Clara, at Havana, Governor Folch wrote, “The lack of opportunity which is generally true of these (frontier) places for providing the youth with an adequate education, has induced me to send my sons to London where they may learn English to perfection, such skill being of inestimable value in these provinces.“

Passage To The New Eden: Tourism In Miami From Flagler Through Everest G. Sewell, Paul S. George
Passage To The New Eden: Tourism In Miami From Flagler Through Everest G. Sewell, Paul S. George
Florida Historical Quarterly
When Henry M. Flagler’s Florida East Coast Railway (FEC) steamed into Miami in April 1896, Florida was already on its way to becoming a tourist haven. With its salubrious climate and primeval setting, the state was, for many visitors a veritable paradise, an accessible Eden. This image was timeless. William Bartram, in his eighteenth-century account of a visit to Florida, described the area as “A blessed unviolated spot of earth . . . [a] blissful garden.” 1 Florida remained remote to most northerners until the middle of the nineteenth century, when a small stream of visitors began arriving, many of …

Liberal Arts On The Florida Frontier: The Founding Of Rollins College, 1885-1890, Jack C. Lane
Liberal Arts On The Florida Frontier: The Founding Of Rollins College, 1885-1890, Jack C. Lane
Florida Historical Quarterly
Although unique in its particulars, the founding of Rollins College in 1885 strongly resembled the formation and establishment of liberal arts colleges throughout the nineteenth century. Three forces-educational denominationalism, community boosterism, and real estate entrepreneurism-converged during the century to create a mania of indiscriminate college-building that produced as many as 700 institutions by the beginning of the Civil War. Founded in the waning years of the “ages of colleges,” Rollins fits this nineteenth-century pattern. It was the Congregational Church that established Rollins in the small frontier town of Winter Park, Florida. The local citizens provided most of the funds, and …

Florida's Relations With Cuba During The Civil War, James W. Cortada
Florida's Relations With Cuba During The Civil War, James W. Cortada
Florida Historical Quarterly
The geographical proximity of Spain’s colony of Cuba to Florida has insured, throughout the nineteenth century, that they would share a unique relationship. Political pundits, military strategists, international businessmen, and later, historians, continually recognized that geography, history, and politics influenced Cuba and Florida, intertwining their affairs. Geography by itself, although an important element in their relations, remained less significant than the much broader political struggle that existed between the United States and Spain over control first of North America, and later over the Caribbean. Florida and Cuba were pawns in this much larger international game of chess that throughout the …
