Tallahassee Chronicles

Everyone has their own take on local history. This book takes a closer look at some of Tallahassee's well-known institutions, people, places, and events and gives the stories behind them. It also explores some history many have either forgotten or ignored. Tallahassee has many different faces depending on the people it impacted. From Fourth of July fireworks and fish-a-thon's to the beginnings of schools, jails and hospitals, each has a story. Tallahassee was a small southern town, but it has a prominent place in the Civil Rights movement, a story which many are not aware. It's all here, chronicled through the years with... the rest of the story.
