Book Synopsis
This historical adventure details the yearly winter travels of Francis R. Stebbins to Florida's Indian River, from 1878 to 1888. What Stebbins enjoyed most was sailing down the river interviewing townspeople and examining local attractions as he went. He documents a decade of change to the Indian River wilderness.

Trade Review
The material... provides a wonderful record of the shifting of the coastal lands through that time period, as inlets open and close and human land use shifts accordingly and in response to newly developed technologies. - Patricia C. Griffin, author of Mullet on the Beach: The Minorcans of Florida, 1768-1788
