Book Synopsis
Located on the eastern edge of Tampa, a port city along Florida’s Gulf Coast, Ybor was a multiracial, multiethnic neighborhood. Sarah McNamara tells the story of how immigrant women ensured and fought for community survival across generations and against the backdrop of a post-Confederate, Jim Crow-controlled southern order.

Trade Review
Ybor City is the best that Latinx history has to offer—deeply researched and rigorous but with respect toward diasporic peoples and the rich communities they build and evolve within."—NACLA Report on the Americas

The book is not some alternative perspective on what happened in Ybor City, but real history and storytelling verified by records in the archives of the USF special collections, petitions in the City of Tampa archives, and the city directories that are part of a treasure chest of artifacts at the Tampa Bay History Center."—Creative Loafing Tampa Bay
