Forty-one historic Florida houses built in the Victorian era of the
late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are brilliantly
captured in all their beauty, character, and detail, and
accompanied by fascinating tales of their original (often famous)
owners. Come along and visit twenty-one cities in the great
Sunshine State, from the Panhandle region in the far northwest, to
the island of Key West in the far south. Victorian architecture was
the style chosen by the social elite of the era for their luxurious
estates. From beautifully designed houses created for families on a
livable cottage scale and set along charming tree-lined suburban
streets, to the mammoth seaside pleasure palaces of the wealthy
heads of industry and the socially elite, Florida's Historic
Victorian Homes delivers a feast for one's eyes and mind, a
showcase of some of the most enduring Victorian architecture in
Florida.
