More about the book

It captures the natural beauty that has attracted inhabitants over centuries, from the first Florida pioneers in 1870 to modern residents. The narrative emphasizes the diverse ecosystems that shaped the community's development through timber, turpentine, salt, and citrus industries. Selected photographs, many from local families, vividly document the lives of those who have made Oak Hill their home.
