Produktbeschreibung
This book contains general information about both tropical cyclones (tropical storms and hurricanes) and freezes that impacted Central Florida. This is the scope - Central Florida. When discussing a hurricane, the focus tends to be about the landfall locale - and not necessarily inland impacts. However, the author gathers as much information as possible (primarily newspaper accounts) to document the towns and their stories. Hurricanes and Tropical storms impact inland communities differently than the coast. Beginning with the earliest accounts, the focus was about citrus industry impacts. Did the hurricane damage citrus trees, blow fruit off, or just flood a locale. Florida was well known for citrus - from the earliest of times. Central Florida was a key location for the citrus industry. Great freezes will damage of destroy these temperature sensitive trees. How many "great freezes" were there? How many snow storms hit Florida? Accounts from the 18th century forward are included in this book. NOTE: Tampa Hurricane of 1848 is included.

Autorenporträt
This book's content comes from this authors collection of 15-volumes of Florida Land Grant Atlas books detailing all the grantees across the State - east of the State Capital. Future volumes will include the western panhandle. However, this book "mines" the information from all 15-volumes. In addition, there is a volume detailing all the Seminole Indian War forts, and freshwater Springs.
