Book Description
Two times there was a wholesale destruction of Jacksonville's official records – in the War Between the States and by the fire of May 3, 1901. The author's effort in this work was to collect all of the available authentic matter for permanent preservation in book form. The record closes as of December 31, 1924. The record is derived from many sources – long forgotten books and pamphlets; old letters and diaries that have been stored away as family memorials of the past; newspapers beginning with the St. Augustine Herald in 1822 (on file at the Congressional Library at Washington) fragmentary for the early years, but extremely valuable for historical research; almost a complete file of local newspapers from 1875 to date; from the unpublished statements of old residents of conditions and outstanding events within the period of their clear recollection; and from a multitude of other sources of reliability. The search through the highways and the byways for local history was in the spare moments of the author stretching over a period of a score of years, a pastime "hobby" with no idea of making money out of it. No attempt has been made to discuss the merits of any incident, but only to present the facts, just as they were and just as they are, from the records and sources indicated.

Book Description
The books in the Florida and the Caribbean Open Books Series demonstrate the University Press of Florida’s long history of publishing Latin American and Caribbean studies titles that connect in and through Florida, highlighting the connections between the Sunshine State and its neighboring islands. Books in this series show how early explorers found and settled Florida and the Caribbean. They tell the tales of early pioneers, both foreign and domestic. They examine topics critical to the area such as travel, migration, economic opportunity, and tourism. They look at the growth of Florida and the Caribbean and the attendant pressures on the environment, culture, urban development, and the movement of peoples, both forced and voluntary. The Florida and the Caribbean Open Books Series gathers the rich data available in these architectural, archaeological, cultural, and historical works, as well as the travelogues and naturalists’ sketches of the area in prior to the twentieth century, making it accessible for scholars and the general public alike. The Florida and the Caribbean Open Books Series is made possible through a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, under the Humanities Open Books program.

Book Description
Excerpt from History of Early Jacksonville Florida: Being an Authentic Record of Events From the Earliest Times to and Including the Civil War In the preparation of this work every effort has been made to use only reliable, authentic data. References are given whenever possible, and where'the reference work is thoroughly indexed, only the title is named. A considerable portion of the matter has never been published before, being the recollections of old citizens, to whom the thanks of the author, and others finding pleasure or profit in these pages, are due; and especially to Mrs. William M. Bostwick, who has given much data and most valuable assistance in the preparation of this book. Some years ago, it was the custom of several of the oldest residents to meet and talk over early days. Many of these old timers have since passed away, but Mrs. Bostwick possesses notes made at the meetings, and much of this matter appears in this book. The author is in no way connected with the sale of this book and receives no remuneration there from, he being content with the privilege of thus placing in permanent form what is believed to be an authentic history of our city during a period for which data are now scarce and becoming more difficult to obtain with the passing of every year.
