Contents: Preface; Foreword: Social Life in Florida in 1845; The Movement for Statehood: Early Agitation for Statehood; The St. Joseph Convention; The Struggle for Admission; The State of Florida; Documents; Notes; Index. From Preface: This v…olume is issued in commemoration of the first centennial of Florida's statehood. Florida Becomes a State consists of selected documents relating to the admission of Florida to the Union, an introduction by Dorothy Dodd, Archivist in the Florida State Library, and a foreword by W. T. Cash, State Librarian, discussing social life in Florida about the time it became a state. The documents constitute a casebook in the formation of a state and are, therefore, not only useful to those interested in Florida history, but to students of the science of government as well. The introduction is more than a skillful interpretation of the documents; it is a splendid illustration of the gradual progress of Florida in surmounting obstacles on the road to statehood.
