Book Synopsis Fort Myers Beach by : Mary Kaye Stevens
Download or read book Fort Myers Beach written by Mary Kaye Stevens and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The once sleepy barrier island labeled Estero Island on navigational charts was dubbed Fort Myers Beach in the early part of the 20th century by city folks who spent their weekends on its wide, sandy beaches. Centuries earlier, an abundance of fish and other seafood made the 6.5-mile-long island attractive to its earliest inhabitants, the Calusa, as well as explorers, fisherfolk, and a pirate or two. In the late 19th century, early homesteaders were lured by stories of free tillable soil in a balmy climate surrounded by warm waters and ankle-deep shells. When pink shrimp, labeled "Pink Gold," were found in nearby waters, another influx of residents arrived. Today, the island is best known as an energetic resort community, but it retains the influence and charm of its remarkable past.

Book Synopsis Hidden History of Fort Myers by : Cynthia A. Williams
Download or read book Hidden History of Fort Myers written by Cynthia A. Williams and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-09 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although best known as the winter home of Thomas Edison and Henry Ford, Fort Myers has one of the most engaging and extraordinary histories of any city in Florida. The spawn of a hurricane, Fort Myers began as a U.S. Army post during Florida's Seminole Wars. During the Civil War, it became a battleground between Confederates and Yankees for cattle and, after the war, a gun-slinging cowboy town. New York cartoonist Walt McDougall blew into the area on a fishing trip, and his glowing description lured down other wealthy Yankee sportsmen who helped turn this isolated frontier town into a modern tourist destination. Historian and author Cynthia Williams explores the hidden stories behind the growth of this beautiful city.

Book excerpt: The Estero Island Historic Society was founded in 1991 by a group of residents who wanted to preserve the island's rich history. Much of that history was washed away when Hurricane Ian came ashore as a Category Four storm on Sept. 28, 2023. This book was written to preserve the history of the iconic structures that were destroyed in the storm. The author, Ellie Buniting, is the president of the Estero Island Historic Society. She came to Fort Myers Beach in 1953 and has spent years working with other members of the Historic Society to make sure the island's history is not lost. This book takes the reader back in time when Fort Myers Beach was a bustling community of people who made their living as business owners or commercial fishermen (or shrimpers). Learn the story behind the famous arches and the old swing bridge. Read about the transformation of Times Square from a business district to an entertainment district. View photos and learn the history behind some of the businesses we have lost including Gulf Shore Grill and the Cottage, Silver Sands Cottages, Holiday Inn (Wyndham Garden), Red Coconut RV Park, Gulf View Shops, Pelican Hotel (Junkanoos), and the Outrigger to name a few. We also discuss the churches that have been destroyed as well as the old libraries, the Beach School, the Women's Club, the Art Association, and the Fire Station.

Book excerpt: Murder, sunken treasure, and pirates both ancient and modern send Doc Ford on a nightmare quest in this New York Times bestseller in Randy Wayne White's thrilling series. Marine biologist Doc Ford has been known to help his friends out of jams occasionally, but he's never faced a situation like this. His old pal Carl Fitzpatrick has been chasing sunken wrecks most of his life, but now he's run afoul of the Florida Division of Historical Resources. Its director, Leonard Nickelby, despises amateur archaeologists, which is bad enough, but now he and his young "assistant" have disappeared--along with Fitzpatrick's impounded cache of rare Spanish coins and the list of uncharted wreck sites Fitz spent decades putting together. Some of Fitz's own explorations have been a little...dicey, so he can't go to the authorities. Doc is his only hope. But greed makes people do terrible things: rob, cheat, even kill. With stakes this high, there's no way the thieves will go quietly--and Doc's just put himself in their crosshairs.

Book excerpt: The stunning new thriller from the New York Times–bestselling author. When a Crow Indian acquaintance of Tomlinson’s asks him to help recover a relic stolen from his tribe, Doc Ford is happy to tag along—but neither Doc nor Tomlinson realize what they’ve let themselves in for. Their search takes them to the part of Central Florida known as Bone Valley, famous primarily for two things: a ruthless subculture of black-marketers who trade in illegal artifacts and fossils, and a multibillion-dollar phosphate industry whose strip mines compromise the very ground they walk on. Neither enterprise tolerates nosy outsiders. For each, public exposure equals big financial losses—and in a region built on a million-year accumulation of bones, there is no shortage of spots in which to hide a corpse. Or two.
