What is A Concise History of Florida (Brief History) about?
A quick overview of the Sunshine State’s fascinating past, with photos and illustrations included. In 1513, Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León first set foot on Florida’s east coast.

This unique state has witnessed such momentous events as the 1959 arrival of the first Cuban exiles under Fidel Castro and the 1981 launch of the Columbia—the first space shuttle.
