5.0 out of 5 stars Solid Foundation for Manatee/Sarasota History, November 2, 2005

By	Miakka2U (Myakka, FL) - See all my reviews

This is an extraordinary scholarly work by Janet Snyder Matthews. Many historians have since drawn on this to augment their own work. If you want the historical framework to understand Manatee/Sarasota history, this should be your starting point. Well written, easy for the lay person to understand.
