Silver unearths the lost stories of nine different women who had a profound influence on the history of Jacksonville, Florida, from the 19th century all the way to the present. Covering such well-known characters as Harriet Beecher Stowe (author of Uncle Tom's Cabin and Palmetto Leaves), to lesser known characters such as the Senegalese woman Anna Madgigine Jai Kingsley who endured the Middle Passage to end up as a landowner in the area. An exemplary model of grassroots history, this book opens a new chapter in women's history in northern Florida, and blazes a trail for future historians to go further."-- Amazon.com.
