Historic Homes of Florida - Laura Stewart

Historic Homes of Florida is a comprehensive survey of restored residences, offering a domestic history of Florida from the days of Spanish occupation to modern times. The book intertwines the stories of these homes with those of their owners, including notable locations such as the Rawlings House in Cross Creek, Vizcaya in Miami, and President Harry S.
