Ponte Vedra Beach - Maggie Fitzroy

Descriere Ponte Vedra Beach - Maggie Fitzroy

\nMany historians believe that Spanish explorer Ponce de Leon was \ndescribing the landscape of Ponte Vedra Beach when he first \nstepped ashore the land that he named La Florida, or place of flowers. \nAfter exploring the area north of present-day St. Augustine, he \nproclaimed it a place of lush landscapes and beautiful beaches. Since \nthat day in April 1513, people from all walks of life have delighted \nin the natural beauty of the area. They were drawn to the charming \nland for many reasons, but miners who came to dig minerals out of the \nbeach sand were the first to visually capture its history. They brought \ncameras with them when they arrived in the early 20th century and \nleft behind a rich trove of photographs. Those who followed recorded \ntheir own history in photographs, and the charm and character of the \nland is evident in the images that fill this book.
