Inhaltsangabe

The Florida Keys stretch like a broken road between the mainland and open
water—a chain shaped by reefs, wrecks, storms, ambition, and stories that never
quite disappear.

Travel from the wrecking settlement of Indian Key and the ruins of Adderley
Town to iron reef lights, forgotten shipwrecks, and the railroad that crossed
the sea. Revisit the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935, Hurricane Donna, and Irma;
meet Zane Grey, treasure hunter Arthur McKee, *Flipper* star Mitzi, the builders
of the Bat Tower, and the residents who fought over electricity on No Name Key.
Across twenty-nine illustrated chapters, Jonah Bell follows the creation of
John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, the submerged Christ of the Deep, the
campaign to save the Key deer, and the documented history behind some of the
island chain's most persistent legends. Folklore, reported experience, archival
evidence, and unresolved claims are distinguished plainly without stripping
the stories of their atmosphere.

*Ghosts, Legends & Lore from Florida: The Florida Keys* is a conversational
journey through the Upper, Middle, and Lower Keys for history readers,
residents, visitors, and anyone curious about what survives after the storm,
the wreck, and the road move on.
