"Freaky Florida" by Mark Muncy and Kari Schultz

While at the Frogman Festival, I picked up ANOTHER great book from Mark Muncy and Kari Schultz.  "Freaky Florida" is another book, covering Florida from the two.

It really is a sibling book to their "Eerie Florida" volume, it covers new ground....  so you should pick up all of their books.

There is a lot going on with this one.....

A couple of cities have uncovered ruins in the state that kinda change everything.  Legends relating to older civilizations are covered.  

As a fan of history, I got a lot from this book too...  it is far from a book just covering folklore.  I found that there was a fort in Florida that, during the Civil War, did not get taken by the CSA.  Another Civil War battle I did not know about is brought up too!  Geronimo's forced adventures in Florida are covered.  The authors write about the tragic deaths involving the Apollo 1 crew too.

Some stories link the establishment of parks to very strange stories and crimes.  One involves a hollow earth cult, and another involves a serial killer.

Like I said about their other books, the stories are quick reads and to the point.  These would be great books to pick up before your next trip to Florida!
