The book is the best reference for obsolete Florida currency collectors ever printed. Illustations of currency notes along with their explanation are shown in every era of the Florida history. The only weakness is the difficulty of the author to given complete information on the rarity of each note.
This is a must have book for numismatists and anyone who is interested in early Florida currency. It is well illustrated with currency from throughout the state and the rarity numbers are quite helpful.
Great book. Couldn't put it down. Read it in two days. Would highly recommend.
