Bibliography Bibliography A Note on Sources This history relies predominantly on primary sources. Information on the archi- val collections and oral history interviews relied upon appears below. The secondary literature on the Everglades is vast, and an attempt to include all secondary sources in this bibliography would make it unwieldy. The bibliography includes all secondary source relied upon by the author. Of the hundreds of scientific papers on Everglades topics, only those relevant to the park’s history and development are included. Many of the papers published by the NPS’s South Florida Natural Resource Center are available online at: http://www.nps.gov/ever/naturescience/sfnrcpublications.htm. Omitted in the bibliography are most articles and books that focus chiefly on the rec- reational opportunities in Everglades National Park, children’s literature, and novels with a setting in Everglades National Park. I have made use of a number of articles published in Tequesta, the journal of the Historical Association of Southern Florida. All Tequesta articles published since 1941 are available online at: http://digitalcollec- tions.fiu.edu/tequesta/index.htm.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

Available at: https://stars.library.ucf.edu/fhq/vol26/iss1/4 Dovell: The Everglades Before Reclamation THE EVERGLADES BEFORE RECLAMATION by J. E. DOVELL Within our own generation a scientist who always weighed his words could say of the Everglades: Of the few as yet but very imperfectly explored regions in the United States, the largest perhaps is the southernmost part of Florida below the 26th degree of northern latitude. This is particularly true of the central and western portions of this region, which inland are an unmapped wilderness of everglades and cypress swamps, and off-shore a maze of low mangrove “keys” or islands, mostly unnamed and uncharted, with channels, “rivers” and “bays” about them which are known only to a few of the trappers and hunters who have lived a greater part of their life in that region. 1 This was Ales Hrdlicka of the Smithsonian Institution, the author of a definitive study of anthropology in Florida written about 1920 ; and it is not far from the truth today.

  • SUMMER ADVENTURES Indigenous Origins O N T H E R O a D EVERGLADES NATIONAL PARK
    SUMMER ADVENTURES Indigenous Origins O N T H E R O A D EVERGLADES NATIONAL PARK DID YOU KNOW? The Indigenous peoples of the Americas arrived from Asia more than 10,000 years ago. The prevailing theory is that they crossed from Siberia to what is now Alaska. Over the ensuing millennia, many of them migrated east and south, populating areas as distant as present-day Nevada and Brazil. Some of them formed communities in the Everglades. One of the major Indigenous peoples in the Everglades were the Calusa, who lived along the southwestern coast of the Florida Peninsula. They used shells to build earthwork platforms and barriers, potentially as protection from the ocean, and they subsisted largely on fish they caught from dugout canoes they crafted. The Calusa, together with the Tequesta and other Indigenous peoples, numbered about 20,000 when the Spanish landed in Florida in the early 16th century. By the late 18th century, their populations were dramatically smaller, decimated by diseases introduced by the Spanish to which they had no immunity. Around that time, Creeks from Georgia and northern Florida began migrating to South Florida, where they assumed the name “Seminoles.” In addition to hunting and fishing, the Seminole farmed corn, squash, melons, and other produce. Beginning in 1818, the U.S. waged a series of wars to remove the Seminoles from Florida. It managed to forcibly relocate some Seminoles to the Indian Territory, though others evaded capture by venturing into the Everglades. Today, Florida’s Seminole and Miccosukee tribes include thousands of members. Some live on reservations, while others live in off-reservation towns or cities.

Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. —19th Amendment to the United States Constitution In 1920, after decades of tireless activism by countless determined suffragists, American women were finally guaranteed the right to vote. The year 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment. It was ratified by the states on August 18, 1920 and certified as an amendment to the US Constitution on August 26, 1920. Developed in partnership with the National Park Service, this publication weaves together multiple stories about the quest for women’s suffrage across the country, including those who opposed it, the role of allies and other civil rights movements, who was left behind, and how the battle differed in communities across the United States. Explore the complex history and pivotal moments that led to ratification of the 19th Amendment as well as the places where that history happened and its continued impact today. 0-31857-0 Cover Barcode-Arial.pdf 1 2/17/20 1:58 PM $14.95 ISBN 978-1-68184-267-7 51495 9 781681 842677 The National Park Service is a bureau within the Department Front cover: League of Women Voters poster, 1920. of the Interior.

  • Protecting Water Quantity in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Wilderness
    Protecting Water Quantity in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Wilderness The lower 15% of the Everglades ecosystem and watershed have been designated as the Everglades National Park (ENP), and about 87% of ENP is designated the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Wilderness. The natural quality of the wilderness has been impacted by longstanding and pervasive upstream water manipulation. As an undeveloped area of land, it appears as wilderness, but ecologically is unnatural; in particular, related to water conditions. In the early 1900s, several uncoordinated efforts upstream of the ENP dredged canals to move water to agriculture and domestic uses, and away from areas where urban development was occurring. In response to unprecedented flooding during the 1947 hurricane season, Congress established the Central and Southern Florida Flood Control Project to systematically regulate the Everglades hydrology through 1,700 miles of canals and levees upstream of what is now designated wilderness. Little consideration was given to the ecology of the Everglades. Currently, the wilderness receives more water than natural in the wet season when developed areas in southern Florida are trying to prevent flooding. During the dry season, agricultural and domestic uses create a demand for water that results in significantly diminished flows entering the wilderness. A key provision of Everglades National Park's 1934 enabling legislation identified the area as "...permanently reserved as a wilderness...and no development shall be undertaken which will interfere with the preservation intact of the unique flora and fauna and essential primitive natural conditions..." A critical goal to meet this mission is to replicate the natural systems in terms of water quantity, quality, timing, and distribution.
