16. Yesterday's Palm Beach - The fame of Palm Beach as a resort had its beginning in 1894 when Henry M. Flagler, who had been a partner of john D. Rockefeller in Standard Oil, extended his railroad to the area and opened the Royal Poinciana Hotel. It was the world's largest at the time. The first Breakers Hotel opened soon after, establishing Palm Beach as The premier winter resort in America. Great fortunes were represented here and it attracted presidents, prime ministers and royalty. Wealth and fame seemed to set the tone. The pictures tell the story. From the Flagler years through the great Crash, much of that time frame is represented here through the photographs.

17. Yesterday's Reflections: Nassau County, Florida - The dark waters of the St. Mary's River flow eastward as they drain the swamps of the Okeefeenokee. The waters serve as the state line between Georgia and Florida. They empty out into the Atlantic Ocean at Fernandina, Florida. This book tells much of the history of Nassau County, Florida, beginning with that of Fernandina. We now can appreciate the role played in Florida's storied past , by the thick forests and rich farmland that makes up much of the land south of the St. Mary's and north of Cowford(now known as Jacksonville). The deep water in the harbor at Fernandina welcomes boats from many ports. The fishing industry as well as the shipping industry were both well developed even in the earlier days of our state as a result of this harbor. When Senator Yulee helped get the rail lines established from Fernandina across the state to Cedar Keys on the Gulf of Mexico, that helped establish an even greater trade route, especially for the west coast of Florida. The rail lines also opened up the milling and naval stores, both of which helped the local economy. Jan Johanness makes an important point concerning the larger community and its people. He writes of the pride and the compassion of the folk of this area. Those components are very important to survival itself when one takes into consideration the isolation of these pioneer families during the early years of Florida's development. There are several river communities featured in this volume along with brief histories of a few families.

18. Yesterday's Sarasota Including Sarasota County - Word of a sub-tropical paradise along the west coast of Florida was known only as an "island named Bimini.' Columbus and his men told of it and that began a series of gold-seeking explorers who found their way to this section of Florida. The explorers found that the land became their greatest adversary. Several centuries later,one young man, only fourteen years old, by the name of William H. Whitaker set out from his Savannah home in 1835. He was not seeking gold, but was trying to make his way in the world. With the help of his half brother in Tallahassee he bought a sloop and sailed south in search of a homesite. High yellow bluffs along the mainland coast of Sarasota caught their eyes. By 1842 the Sarasota area had its first settler. Life was primitive, but the woods and water were bountiful. By 1886 the Sarasota Bay area was mainly a fishing village. However, the fishing industry dissipated after the boom of 1886-87, for steamer skippers never liked the trip from Tampa out into the open Gulf down to Sarasota. In addition, Tampa just had a railroad brought into its town linking it with other parts of the state and country. So Tampa, with its new ice packing houses, became the hub of the fishing industry. Pictures from in and around Sarasota are arranged in chronological order from before 1900 with each decade or so having a section dedicated to those years.
