The West Florida War was published in book form in 1989 and, after three printings, is now out-of-print. It is being made available here in its entirety to assist those researching family connections to the Battle of Marianna and in the hopes of stimulating new interest in this nearly forgotten Florida battle. Dale Cox would like to hear from anyone who would like can contact him. Email CoxGA@aol.com

Smyrnea: Dr. Andrew Turnbull and the Mediterranean Settlement at New Smyrna and Edgewater, Florida, 1766-1777 Introduction

The St. Augustine Historical Society Research Library preserves the finest collections of printed, microfilmed, manuscript, digital, and pictorial materials relating to Florida history in a non-governmental repository. Our collections are of national importance owing to the many unique resources that we offer.

Library hours are Tuesday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m., and the third Saturday of the month, 9:00 a.m. until 12:30 p.m.

Many of the microfilmed archival documents at the Center for Historic Research have been translated and entered into a database on AREV software, the size of which is now 14.5 million bytes. This database holds 3,814 documents, 4,978 biographical files and 3,230 culture files. The Center aided in the acquisition of the McAllister and Samuel Proctor book collections of works on Latin American and Florida history and is presently involved in the acquisition of the Stetson Collection, the Spanish document collection from the Archives of the Indies in Spain. The Center is located at 97 St. George Street, 2nd Floor, St. Augustine, and its mail should be sent to: P.O.
