Описание: It's easier to imagine ghosts haunting gloomy, medieval castles in Europe or brooding mansions in New England than bright, cheerful homes across the Sunshine State, but ghosts abound in sunny, tropical Florida. In fact, Florida absolutely oozes the weird, the creepy, and the ghastly. Here are true stories of haunted places up and down Florida's Gulf Coast, including eyewitness accounts. Read about Robert the haunted doll, the phantom phone that rings at the Belleview-Biltmore Hotel, and the spirits who refuse to leave the Royalty Theater.

Описание: Saga of the epic nine-year legal battle against the City of New York on behalf of the first responders on the Ground Zero cleanup.
Sourced and written from hundreds of research papers and dozens of interviews the book chronicles, in layman's terms, a history of the unwelcome appearance of red tide and blue-green algae in Southwest Florida's coastal estuaries beginning in the 16th century up until the present day.
Then, using the most current available medical research, it discusses the effects of the algae outbreaks on human health, and concludes with a critical review of state and federal efforts to deal with a growing problem affecting residents and visitors.
The book is intended to inform and create a call to action by politicians and regulatory agencies before the problem overwhelms the economy of southwest Florida.
