Southern Comforts: Rooted in a Florida Place
by Sudye Cauthen. Hardcover, 192 pgs, 24 black and white photos, 7 maps. University of Georgia Press, 2008.
A moving meditation on what Florida has lost and still stands to lose. Part self-reflection, part meditation, and part social analysis, Cauthen's work threads through the stories of blacks, whites and Native Americans—men and women—including her own family members. Through their words and hers, Cauthen explores northern Florida's unique history, culture and geography while she seeks a greater understanding of herself and her surroundings. Permeating the book is the ever-present menace of growth and development and what it holds for Cauthen's Florida.
