Still gotta credit that book for explaining how Florida was actually owned by the British at the time of the Revolution and refused to join the revolt because all of the runaway slaves would've killed the Floridian elite. Really helps to strengthen his thesis, and absolutely blew my mind. Always thought Florida was a Spanish possession but at the time the Brits had it!
