20078645bdGainesville: University Press of Florida 2007. First Edition. Octavo softbound slick full-color illus. wrappers xii 193 pp. Near-Fine with a touch of soiling to ffep. and half-title. From lower cover: Sightings of animals unrecognized by modern science -- from the Loch Ness monster to alien big cats from Big Foot to giant penguins -- are reported on an almost daily basis. Since the 1950s the study of these creatures has been known as cryptozoology. Though many of these reports have been exposed as hoaxes some continue to resist explanation. And more than a fair share of these creatures have made their home among the condos and theme parks of Florida. Award-winning author Michael Newton introduces the curious the strange and the unexplained in Florida’s Unexpected Wildlife. The ususal suspects -- giant squids sea monsters inexplicably huge animals unicorns and the Skunk Ape Florida’s relative to Bigfoot -- are all included. The book explores the history of each creature whether it is an extinct or merely exotic species and the ensuing investigations into its existence. Newton also delves into lesser-known mysteries: a ghost kangaroo; a dead shark on the edge of a lake; “extinct†birds; pink alligators; and El Chupacabra known mostly for leaving behind a trail of dead animals drained of their blood. While “monster hunters†can use Florida’s Unexpected Wildlife as a field guide casual readers can simply enjoy the many fascinating tales and the wealth of evidence collected in this book. Grab your binoculars and enjoy the quest! University Press of Florida, (2007). First Edition. paperback books
20018631bdGainesville: University Press of Florida 2001. First Edition. Octavo black & red boards hardcover gilt letters xiii 260 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: In vivid comprehensive and often grim detail Invisibible Empire charts 130 years of Ku Klux Klan activity in Florida one of the Klan’s most violent and enduring realms. Beginning with the chaotic days of REconstruction when Klansmen killed more than 150 victims in a single county this important history describes the organization’s influence on Florida politics and its links to modern law enforcement. From the KKK’s heyday during the 1920s and 1930s its alignment in the 1970s and 1980s with a growing crop of neo-Nazis and other cultists and its emergence in the 1990s on the fringe of the “right-to-lif†movement Florida Klansmen have waged a constant war against progressive society. Their crimes range from petty vandalism to assassination and destruction of entire communities. Florida governors have courted Klan ballots and high-ranking lawmen collaborated with the Klan in campaigns of arson and murder. In addition to recounting tales of violence Newton addresses the critical question of how the hooded night riders continue to survive -- a bitter marginalized extremist movement that is still marching in what is arguably the Deep South’s most progressive and ethnically diverse state. He also discusses how to curb guerrilla warfare before the Klan and its allies inaugurate a new century of terror. University Press of Florida, (2001). First Edition. hardcover books
