Old hickory's town : an illustrated history of Jacksonville by James Ward and Dena Snodgrass. 1st edition
This illustrated history of Jacksonville, Florida, is more than the story of a town founded 160 years ago on the north bank of the Cowford on the St. Johns River. It is a story of the river and the land, the people and their times. To paraphrase Robert Frost, the river was theirs before they knew it, just as the people were the river's.
This illustrated history of Jacksonville contains a narrative text of more than 125,000 words -- much of it drawn from the relevant Spanish and British documents -- and some 400 photographs, paintings, drawings and maps.Collection
