Traverse sun-drenched backcountry and sunny shores through quick-witted travel tales and tall Florida stories.
A playful, windowed look at early Florida, this volume follows two curious travelers as they swap legends, chase game, and chase the next big adventure along rivers, coast, and small towns. From steamer voyages to hunting camps and quirky hotels, the writing captures a vivid, bygone Florida with humor and grit.
The book combines travel observations with lively anecdotes, offering a front-row seat to adventures, misadventures, and the people met along the way. It blends practical travel notes with lighthearted storytelling, presenting a mosaic of scenes—from river towns to foggy mornings and bustling hotels—that feel both affectionate and adventurous.
Ideal for readers who enjoy old Florida travel writing, humorous misadventures, and stories told with a light, storytelling touch.
