A Journey Through Time: A Pictorial History of South Dade

This book examines the rich history of a region that has hosted humanity for 10,000 years, or longer than any other part of southeast Florida. Historian Paul S. George's panoramic story of South Dade County includes an exploration into its early native populations, the first white settlers drawn to a verdant coastal ridge anchoring a hammock land rich in game, the impact of war on its development, and the coming of intrepid homesteaders who braved its pestiferous insects, its isolation, and subpar farming conditions to forge homes in the wilderness.
