Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dig into a treasure trove of nearly forgotten Sunshine State Civil War history. At the outset of the Civil War, Florida's entire population was only a bit larger than present-day Gainesville. Still, the state played an outsized role in the conflict. Floridians fought for the Union and Confederate armies. Sunshine State farmers provided beef and other foodstuffs for the Confederacy, rations that proved increasingly consequential as the years wore on. The battles of Olustee and Natural Bridge, where boys from the West Florida Seminary entered the fray, helped keep Tallahassee as the only Confederate-held capital east of the Mississippi River. Even the conspirators involved in Lincoln's assassination wove a trail that led to Florida. Join author Robert Redd on a tour of the lesser-known aspects of Florida in the Civil War.
Download or read book Florida s Civil War written by Irvin D. S. Winsboro and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Welcome to Florida Historical Society Press initial volume in its newly created Gold Seal series. This is the first of what will eventually be a multi-volume series of specialized books that deal with narrowly focused issues in Florida history. Given the emotional and ongoing interest in the American Civil War, it is appropriate that this inaugural issue focuses on that seminal event. Just sixteen years after its admission to the Union as a state, Florida, under the control of a slave owning planter elite, brushed aside the flimsy ties that bound it to the nation and joined its sister slave states in creating a new nation, the Confederate States of America. As every American knows, the result was a long, bloody and costly war that produced many changes in the body politic and economic climate of the United States. Pitting brother against brother, state against state and ideology against ideology, the war swept aside the dominance of agrarian Americans and ushered in a new era controlled by industrialists and bankers. Florida, and her fellow southern states, was left to the task of picking up the pieces of its culture, bolstered by a persistent and unflagging mentality of what should have been. It has taken the more than a century-and-a-half for the open wounds of defeat to heal. Dr. I. D. S. Winsboro of Florida Gulf Coast University in Fort Meyers is the editor of the first Gold Seal volume. His scholarship on the role African-Americans played in the Civil War is well known. Once again, welcome to the inaugural volume." -- Nick Wynne,Executive Director, The Florida Historical Society.

Download or read book Florida s Civil War Years written by Keith W. Kohl and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Civil War would leave few parts of a divided land untouched. Florida was one of the places far removed from the areas of heavy fighting. Yet Florida would know the presence of war during the years of 1861 through 1865. The conflict nearly began in one of her coastal harbors, and the state would find its role to be steadily more prominent as the war progressed. Following early actions along the coasts and in surrounding waters, Florida became the scene of a growing number of battles and skirmishes. This is the story of Florida and the experiences of her citizens during this pivotal time in American history.
Download or read book The Civil War and Reconstruction in Florida Classic Reprint written by William Watson Davis and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civil War and Reconstruction in Florida Before this monograph on Florida was begun American historians had presented with admirable clearness and breadth the essential facts and principles involved in the momentous issues which confronted the nation for more than a decade after 1861. The field had been fairly explored. Little that was both broadly significant and new remained unexploited. The present work is therefore something like a small section of a long appendix. It belongs logically to that body of monographic literature which usually follows the stimulating analysis of a period or of an extended institution. The crop of Civil War and Reconstruction monographs is steadily increasing and today at least exhibits evidences of good intention and industry on the part of the monographists. Maybe from these detailed studies a wiser and juster interpretation of the period will be produced for some later generation, although nothing, not even monographs, can save a generation from seeking what it desires, which in matters historical seems to be history that is proven ("authentic" is the word usually heard) and interesting ("just like a romance" is the phrase) - regardless of the facts in the case. People seem to want their opinions on past politics ready-made, and there is a successful effort to supply the small demand. This is evidently not a phenomenon of our utilitarian age. Montaigne referred to it more than three centuries ago. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
