Originally published by LOUISVILLE, KY. JOHN P. MORTON & COMPANY. 1889Prepare to be transported back to the pioneer days of Florida. This 1889 author presents the varieties of homesteading in Florida with candor, humor, and practical advice for the aspiring Florida pioneer. Learn how to farm, fish, build homesteads and furniture to put in the homestead. Learn how to deal with pests, mosquitos, alligators, and all of the other flora and fauna unique to the state. The author states, 'Those who know Florida as she is, are those who love her best, and are most willing to tell the truth about her, without fear or favor.' In that she succeeds perfectly. This book is full of fascinating detailed information about life in Florida in the late 19th century.Yesterday Press is dedicated to reprinting titles that are in the public domain and offering them to the public in order to share history and preserve the stories and records of the past.
