Review Essay:--Florida's Heritage Of Diversity: Essays In Honor Of Samuel Proctor, James B. Crooks
Review Essay:--Florida's Heritage Of Diversity: Essays In Honor Of Samuel Proctor, James B. Crooks
Florida Historical Quarterly
It is appropriate that this volume stresses Florida’s heritage of diversity because Samuel Proctor in his many contributions to this state’s history explored, wrote, taught, edited, and celebrated its rich variety of people and institutions. During his fifty-plus-year relationship with the University of Florida and his thirty years editing the Florida Historical Quarterly, Proctor nurtured research and edited histories of Native Americans, African Americans, immigrants, women, Jews, and other Floridians ranging from poor crackers to millionaire businessmen. Proctor also pioneered the use of oral history in this region, edited twenty-five facsimile volumes of rare books on Florida for the Florida …

List Of The Inhabitants Of Pensacola Who Were Householders At The Time Of The Capitulation, William S. Coker
List Of The Inhabitants Of Pensacola Who Were Householders At The Time Of The Capitulation, William S. Coker
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Spaniards prepared a list of householders soon after their victory over the British at Pensacola on May 10, 1781, although the exact date of the document is unknown. They used this list to wrap other documents and it carries a note: “Varios memoriales dentra y otros papeles en Yngles qe. u guardan pa. en caso de reclaman” (inside are various memorials and other English papers that are kept in case of claims).

The First Seminole War, November 21, 1817-May 24, 1818, John K. Mahon
Florida Historical Quarterly
The North American Southeast remained a wild borderland where Indian tribes, the United States, Spain, and Great Britain competed fiercely for supremacy. After the War of 1812 Spain kept a tenuous hold on Florida; however, Spanish authorities could not enforce peace on the border and were unable to prevent black slaves from fleeing to Florida and joining the Seminole Indians. Seen from Washington the peninsula was a natural appendage to the United States, and James Monroe’s administration hankered to possess it.
Seeking The Sweet Spirit Of Harmony: Establishing A Spiritualist Community At Cassadaga, Florida, 1893-1933, John J. Guthrie, Jr.
Seeking The Sweet Spirit Of Harmony: Establishing A Spiritualist Community At Cassadaga, Florida, 1893-1933, John J. Guthrie, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
In March of 1899, a prominent Spiritualist from Amelia, Ohio, J. Clegg Wright, sent a letter to a medium residing in Cassadaga, Florida. Wright informed Emma J. Huff that he planned to attend the following year’s Spiritualist convention in the Sunshine State. Congratulating her for having a “fairly good meeting this year,” he added: “It must be a hard region in which to sow the seed of progressive thought. The South Land is behind. It is cursed by the heel of old religion— a monstrous tyrant. He puts the eyes out of all his subjects.“1 Wright’s letter reveals much about …
The Beginnings Of Big Sugar In Florida, 1920-1945, John A. Heitmann
The Beginnings Of Big Sugar In Florida, 1920-1945, John A. Heitmann
Florida Historical Quarterly
During the past several years, the Florida sugar industry has been under the journalist’s microscope and scrutinized as no other agricultural enterprise in America. If we are to believe the evidence presented in Alec Wilkinson’s Big Sugar, or essays written over the past decade that appeared in Forbes, George, the Nation, and Florida Trend, one must conclude that Florida sugar interests are economically privileged and politically powerful, ruthlessly exploitative towards labor, and, to top it off, largely responsible for the environmental degradation of the Everglades.1 During the 1980s the focus of the attack centered on the industry’s use of imported …

Florida's Flying Minute Men: The Civil Air Patrol, 1941-1943, Thomas Reilly
Florida's Flying Minute Men: The Civil Air Patrol, 1941-1943, Thomas Reilly
Florida Historical Quarterly
As the United States teetered on the brink of war, many worried that the country was woefully unprepared to defend its own shores. Several prominent Americans developed the idea of a civilian defense force to patrol the offshore waters of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and the Gulf of Mexico. A committee headed by Gill Robb Wilson, National Aeronautic Association president and aviation editor for the New York Herald Tribune, presented a Civil Air Patrol (CAP) plan to Fiorello H. LaGuardia, director of the United States Civilian Defense, mayor of New York City, and World War I flyer. Unlike many …
Claude Pepper, Strom Thurmond, And The 1948 Presidential Election In Florida, Julian M. Pleasants
Claude Pepper, Strom Thurmond, And The 1948 Presidential Election In Florida, Julian M. Pleasants
Florida Historical Quarterly
In his book, The Loneliest Campaign, Irwin Ross called Harry S. Truman’s victory in the presidential election of 1948 “the most astonishing political upset in modern times.“1 Truman achieved this victory despite a three-way split in the Democratic Party. Strom Thurmond, governor of South Carolina and presidential candidate for the States’ Rights Democratic Party, and Henry Wallace, former secretary of agriculture and vice president, and nominee of the Progressive Party, both denounced Truman and opposed his election.

The Florida Architecture Of F. Burrall Hoffman Jr., 1882-1980, Donald W. Curl
The Florida Architecture Of F. Burrall Hoffman Jr., 1882-1980, Donald W. Curl
Florida Historical Quarterly
Everyone interested in Florida’s architectural history should know of Francis Burrall Hoffman Jr. and his connection to Miami’s great villa Vizcaya. Few realize he had a distinguished Florida career spanning over sixty years and designed buildings in several sections of the state. In fact, when the United States entered World War I in 1917, the thirty-five-year-old Hoffman may have been, in terms of cost of commissions, Florida’s most successful domestic architect. In only eight short years of private practice, Hoffman had designed Vizcaya, the Biscayne Bay mansion, for industrialist James Deering, large oceanfront residences in Palm Beach for Mrs. Frederick …

Review Essay:--The Transformation Of The Late-Twentieth-Century South, Raymond A. Mohl
Review Essay:--The Transformation Of The Late-Twentieth-Century South, Raymond A. Mohl
Florida Historical Quarterly
Over the past few decades, the study of southern history has experienced an impressive scholarly renewal. Few areas of modern American scholarship have produced such exciting new work. Traditional subjects such as the antebellum South, the Civil War and Reconstruction, and post-Reconstruction southern politics and race relations have been reworked and reinterpreted. Recent social and cultural history approaches have given us new perspectives on slavery and slaves, the white and black working class, black and white women, urban and rural life, family and religion, and the cultural imperatives that shaped and molded the southern experience. Above all, however, southern historical …
Civil Rights And School Desegregation In Sanford, Patricia Dillon
Civil Rights And School Desegregation In Sanford, Patricia Dillon
Florida Historical Quarterly
The civil rights movement in the United States reached beyond the federal legislation that eradicated legal segregation. The movement also fundamentally transformed how white and black Americans interacted on a daily basis in small communities and large urban centers. Historians such as John Dittmer, William H. Chafe, and David R. Colburn have analyzed how national laws affected racial relations at the community level. While Dittmer and Chafe examined the movement in states traditionally associated with the civil rights movement— Mississippi and North Carolina respectively—Colburn looked at the movement in Florida, a state whose contemporary popular image as a tourist haven …
The Power Of The Written Word And The Spoken Word In The Rise And Fall Of William Lee Popham, William Warren Rogers
The Power Of The Written Word And The Spoken Word In The Rise And Fall Of William Lee Popham, William Warren Rogers
Florida Historical Quarterly
William Lee Popham first came to the small fishing and lumbering town of Apalachicola in 1916. Seat of government for Franklin County in northwest Florida and located at the mouth of the Apalachicola River, the town had an aesthetic appeal. Equally important, it enjoyed strategic economic advantages. As a port opening to the Gulf of Mexico, antebellum Apalachicola imported manufactured goods and luxuries and shipped them by steamboats up the Apalachicola River and beyond. They went to individuals and businesses in north Florida, southwest Georgia, and southeast Alabama. In turn, Apalachicola received timber and agricultural products, especially cotton, from the …

The Gangster In Our Midst: Al Capone In South Florida, 1930-1947, Stephen C. Bousquet
Florida Historical Quarterly
As the sun rose over Miami on the morning of April 20, 1930, thousands of residents were attending Easter services on Miami Beach. A few miles north, the Dixie Limited was braking to a stop at the Florida East Coast Railway station in Hollywood. Aboard the southbound train was no ordinary seasonal visitor— or “snowbird’‘— but one of the most notorious vacationers who ever sought a little rest and relaxation in the Florida sun: Al Capone. “Scarface Al.” “Public Enemy Number One.” Overlord of the Chicago underworld. It was quite a ride. A Miami man who was on the train …
