Deerfield was a primitive land when pioneers arrived in the late 1890s. Early farmers battled rattlesnakes and mosquitoes to clear palmetto thickets and scrub oak all in an effort to eke out a living raising pineapples and vegetables in the small southern Florida east coast settlement. In Deerfield Beach: The Land and Its People, meet these early pioneers as well as those who came after and discover their rich stories. From the settlement's humble beginnings to the Florida land boom; from Prohibition and Al Capone to damaging hurricanes; from the Depression to the post-World War II population and building boom; from a rhythm and blues hot spot to tales of murder and mayhem. Read the fascinating story of Deerfield Beach in the first comprehensive narrative and pictorial history brought to you by the Deerfield Beach Historical Society.
