Britain's Loyal Colonies Lost: The American Revolution in Florida

W.T. Bland Public Library (Mount Dora) - Community Room

In-Person

Learn the often overlooked story of Florida in the War of Independence with  Dr. David Head, Historian at the University of Central Florida. As 13 of Britain’s colonies declared independence in 1776, the empire’s Florida colonies, East Florida and West Florida, remained loyal to King George. Eyed by American and Spanish forces alike, the Floridas were soon engulfed in war.  No registration required.
