Fascinating facts and significant events of the Civil War in Florida, organized by calendar dates and accompanied by photos and illustrations.
Mainland America's southernmost state has more than its share of Civil War stories. In January 1861, Florida militia forces captured the old Spanish Castillo de San Marcos, then known as Fort Marion, from the single Union soldier who guarded it. In 1862, Union forces recaptured it without a single shot fired. Union general Edward Moody McCooklater minister to Hawaiiaccepted the surrender of Tallahassee on May 10, 1865, and on May 13, he read the Emancipation Proclamation to an assembled crowd of white Floridians and former slaves on the steps of the Knott House in the city.
In this illustrated book, local historians Nick Wynne and Joe Knetsch detail a Civil War moment for each date on the calendarso you can take in a tidbit every day, or enjoy a fascinating read all at once.
