About this product

Product Information

A Land Remembered has been ranked #1 Best Florida Book eight times in annual polls conducted by Florida Monthly Magazine. In this best-selling novel, Patrick Smith tells the story of three generations of the MacIveys, a Florida family who battle the hardships of the frontier to rise from a dirt-poor Cracker life to the wealth and standing of real estate tycoons. The story opens in 1858, when Tobias MacIvey arrives in the Florida wilderness to start a new life with his wife and infant son, and ends two generations later in 1968 with Solomon MacIvey, who realizes that the land has been exploited far beyond human need. The sweeping story that emerges is a rich, rugged Florida history featuring a memorable cast of crusty, indomitable Crackers battling wild animals, rustlers, Confederate deserters, mosquitoes, starvation, hurricanes, and freezes to carve a kingdom out of the swamp. But their most formidable adversary turns out to be greed, including finally their own. Love and tenderness are here too: the hopes and passions of each new generation, friendships with the persecuted blacks and Indians, and respect for the land and its wildlife. A Land Remembered was winner of the Florida Historical Society's Tebeau Prize as the Most Outstanding Florida Historical Novel. Now in its 14th hardcover printing, it has been in print since 1984 and is also available in trade paperback.

  • A Land Remembered by Patrick Smith

    A friend wanted me to read this book. He told me it was the best book he has ever read and wanted me to just read the first 100 pages to see if I liked it. I couldn't put it down. It is a different read for me and it was very good.

  • It reads more like and adventure story than a historical novel.

    For anybody interested in the reconstruction period of Florida history, this book reads like a timeline from the 1860's through the 1960's. It is well written and makes compelling reading. The characters are lifelike and easy to empathize with. Life was tough on the Florida plains.

  • Florida's history.

    While this book is the fictional history of a few family's. It is actually nearly completely based on factual info about settlers to Florida and how the lived. I didnt know this until after I read the book the first time, but now it is even more so a compelling read !!
