If nothin' don't happen

This is a collection of true episodes from the lives of a family settled in Florida's Gulf Hammock back in the 20's and 30's. The book really gives a interesting look at life as a Florida cracker, and is absolutely hilarious in many of its stories. David Newell wields a good pen, this is a hard book to put down. There are sketches on hunting, raising stock, and observations on the natural habitat of early Florida that are well worth the read.
