Synopsis: A culmination of many years of enjoyable research by the author Pete Gerrell portrayed the history of the turpentine industry through the use of old photos, letters, advertisements, home remedies, recipes and jokes. The illustrated history traces the industry from Biblical times through the years to its virtual finish in the 1970's. The book was one of the first written on the turpentine industry.
See photos as part of description. Minor edge and cover wear. Spine intact, no missing pages.
Gently read, really enjoyed the book. Obtained this book on a student field trip in Wakulla County, many years back studying scrub jays in the pine flats. Has the original price tag on front cover.
Allen Roston "Pete" Gerrell passed Aug 3, 2007, and left an amazing legacy. RIP.
