Gannon's passion for the state shines through in a narrative style that avoids overwhelming detail while remaining engaging. He is a lifelong student of Florida's history, acclaimed for his storytelling and writing skills. The book presents the longest recorded history of any state in the U.S. across twenty-seven illustrated chapters.

Michael Gannon is a distinguished professor emeritus of history at the University of Florida and has received numerous accolades for his contributions to the field.…
