Description
From little more than a novel concept seventy-five years ago, Florida’s state park program has evolved today into a vast, diverse system of fascinating and irreplaceable natural wonders and historic memorials, spanning the state from one extremity to another. The magnificent system of state parks that resulted encapsulates all that is distinctive and special about the state of Florida, to be preserved indefinitely for the continuing enjoyment and edification of successive generations. It represents, by any measure, a truly extraordinary achievement.
This 300 page book chronicles the birth and growth of Florida's state park system to 2010. by Ney C. Landrum, Director Emeritus, Florida State Parks
