Description
While many works chronicle the various facets of Florida's history, no book has revealed the myriad contributions of the state's pioneering women. Doris Weatherford presents the first comprehensive narrative of the leading ladies who shaped Florida, from prehistoric times to the present.
An in-depth portrayal of Florida's guiding matriarchs, The Dared to Dream divulges the lifestyles and achievements of women throughout landmark moments in history, including European exploration, the Civil War era, and post-World War II Florida.
