Overview

SECOND EDITION: Farming Citrus and developing Central Florida's wilderness LAND were two constants defining a mysterious 19th Century CitrusLAND. The earliest settlers arrived in 1842, and immediately planted the first commercial orange grove. But despite promised wealth in a land of health and sunshine, by 1870, onlly 584 families were calling this 3,000 square mile territory their home. CitrusLAND is more than history, for this is the story of people, men and women, brave pioneers who took on the challenge of their lives, a challenge that often cost them their lives. 37 Exhibits, and a bibliography of over 700 references, assists in the telling of this fascinating story - the first days of Central Florida.
